The use of keypad interfaces has become an increasingly common feature of car park administration and payment systems. “Get Your Reg Right” is a campaign aimed at raising awareness about the importance of typographical accuracy when using a keypad interface to enter a vehicle registration to validate or pay for a parking session at a managed parking facility.
The aim of the “Get Your Reg Right” campaign is threefold:
1: to educate motorists about the importance of typographical accuracy
2: to encourage local authority and private parking operators to be more sympathetic when motorists make trivial or minor typographical errors
3: to encourage parking technology manufacturers and service providers to devise more user-friendly technology
It is important that motorists are aware of the importance of typographical accuracy when entering their registration number to avoid being issued with a parking ticket unnecessarily.
“Get Your Reg Right” is the first campaign of its type to highlight the importance of typographical accuracy amongst all stakeholders in the parking industry.
