Aluminum ladders
It has been observed that one can park anywhere and avoid being ticketed by the simple expedient of having an aluminium ladder on the roof of one's car. This identifies the owner of the vehicle as a tradesperson on legitimate business, and thus not subject to normal parking restrictions.
This in itself makes the ladder an almost perfect Universal Parking Permit. Aluminium ladders, however, are relatively cumbersome, and not the sort of thing most people would have on their cars.
An improvement would be to manufacture decoy ladders, ones made of lightweight materials, which do not unfold into actual usable ladders, but look authentic when displayed on the roof of a car. The UPP, being lighter and smaller, could ideally be folded into an even smaller space, and kept in the car's glove box when not in use. Upon parking, the user would take it out, unfold it into the folded-ladder position and position it on the roof of the vehicle.
