False parkers in Delmenhorst: New app cleans up private parking spaces!

Again and again parking owners are annoyed when drivers are forbidden to park in private parking spaces. In order to counteract this problem, a helpful app in northwestern Germany has now been developed. It enables the owners concerned to initiate a towing the unjustifiably parked vehicle with just a few clicks.

The innovative application called "Parkknotruf" is now also available in Delmenhorst after it has already successfully established itself in cities such as Oldenburg and Wilhelmshaven. The advantage of this app is that parking owners no longer have to call to order towing. With a simple click you can control the entire process independently. This not only creates time savings, but also a quick handling of annoying false parkers.

legal background of the towing

The procedure for removing unauthorized vehicles is legally okay. Drivers who park in a private parking lot violate the so -called "ownership right" of the owner - an action that is called "prohibited self -power". This means that the owners have the right to have such cars removed themselves. In this context, tenants can also be regarded as a lawful parking lot owner.

The police, on the other hand, have no way to intervene in such cases, since their responsibility only applies to public areas. Therefore, the parking lot owners themselves are responsible when it comes to accounting for false parkers. The "Parkknotruf" app offers an uncomplicated solution. It makes it easier to take legal steps against false parkers.

The course of the app use

How exactly does the use of the app work? First of all, the parking lot owners must enter the license plate of the incorrectly parked vehicle in the application. Then upload two photos of the vehicle. With one click, the towing order is activated without a phone call. The app provider assumes the costs and the implementation of the towing process. According to Nicole Frömming, the managing director of the app, the company works in all cities in which it is active with the police to ensure proper processing.

After towing, the app automatically informs the responsible authorities to prevent theft ads and meet all legal requirements. This also gives users the trust that the app is not only quickly, but also legally secure.

The social psychological effects of this app should not be underestimated. Motorists who have been guilty of false parking are given the opportunity to learn from the app where your vehicle can be picked up and which fees are incurred for the return. According to the company, the fees for the local rates for towing costs are.

Nevertheless, there is no activity of the police regarding the app in this context. The Osnabrück police department and the PD Oldenburg have made it clear that they are not involved in towing matters. The law enforcement officers bait the law enforcement officers, since their responsibility does not apply to private parking spaces.

The number of app users is steadily increasing, as the managing directors nevertheless report. The application is available in cities with more than 100,000 inhabitants, and the offer is increasingly being expanded to smaller cities. A cooperation with a housing company in Wilhelmshaven, which manages over 7000 apartments with corresponding parking spaces, suggests that more people will soon fall back on the app.

The monthly reports on incorrect parking in Wilhelmshaven are currently around five, while in Oldenburg around ten reports have been recorded since summer 2023. These numbers speak for themselves and indicate that awareness of the problem is growing.

The system has clear advantages, but also some challenges. Involves for the users to use the app are helpful to affect the returnees for their false parkers. The application thus becomes a decisive tool for private parking owners, and their acceptance is only promoted by the reported successes.
