停车可以激发强烈的热情，特别是在公共空间供不应求的旧金山。因此强烈抗议的应用软件使得街道上停车位的占用者通过向其他司机发出他们正要离开的提醒信息而赚钱。在本文发表时，其中一个应用软件，<span word="MonkeyParking">MonkeyParking</span>，正寻求旧金山市府的律师<span word="Dennis">Dennis</span> <span word="Herrera">Herrera</span>的理解，他已经责令其6月11日前停止操控城市街道否则将面临起诉。另一个应用软件，<span word="ParkModo">ParkModo</span>，也引起了<span word="Herrera">Herrera</span>的注意，这一软件目前还不能在旧金山应用，虽然它声称它打算在将来席卷全国。 <span

word="MonkeyParking">MonkeyParking</span>服务的用户出价5到20美元来竞拍其他用户将腾出的停车位。该公司还在另一个停车位相对稀有的城市罗马推出了这项应用服务。旧金山当局指出，当地一项法律强力禁止出售或租赁公共停车位。而软件公司称其服务不是停车位买卖，只是提供可用停车位的信息，这因此减少了在街道上来回转圈寻找停车位的车辆数量。 <span
