Spotted this new orange wheel lock today. Its a lot smaller than the previous bulkier version which is why I am predicting people won’t notice it and try to drive off with the lock.
Update: Here is a closer look…

Do they not put stickers on the windscreen to warn drivers?
I think they put the small ticket under the wipers.
That is going to be a bitch! Seriously!!! Damn!
the older one damages the the wheel
with this one, if the “hugging” end is rubber coated, it will be more friendly to the wheel
yeah just checked, looks like its rubber coated. just posted a close up shot.
it also looks like the less metal would do less damage, if it hits the chasis in case the car is moved…. less than the the older bulky ones.
I think this also fits low sports cars like ferraris. I am not sure but I think the older ones were too thick to fit under the car
cool. let’s hope we see a lot more of these…
on illegally parked cars.
specially in salmiya in front of mcdonalds
There are some cars that these can’t fit for sure!
wheel locking is an extremely lazy and childish way to punish traffic offenders. perfect for this country i guess.
If you’re in the shits, need your car and not in the mood to linger for police; replacing the clamped tire with your spare “trick” still works.
i think they didn’t install it the right way. it should have been on the front.
Somehow the song by N.W.A. comes to mind: “Fuck The Police” ..the album “Straight Outta Compton “.

lol .. what the hell is this crap? if a wheel lock doesn’t look like the ones in the link I’m providing below, then it’s DEFINITELY useless since I will be able to change my tyre easily if it was something like the one in the picture above! that’s just useless…

locking a wheel will make the car park for longer time in the non-parking area,, it’s stupid
Amjad, if u change the tire u’ll be facing whole bigger problem than just paying a ticket.
hello my stupid little orange friends!!!
now guess who are the agents for these locks hahahaha
I once parked a Dodge Viper in a bus lane… The police managed to fit the old orange lock under there!
I guess we can just change the Tire .. as the cop for sure wont remeber all the locks he had put .. plus the only thing u need to do is pay the fine online. its a no parking ticket.. . guys be smart when they are dumb 🙂
