If you forgot your key again and wish you could get into your home without it, you may be able to use your credit card to do so. Just keep in mind that this technique only works on doors that have a simple knob lock with a spring-latch or...
Avis and the rest (in link) could set up a system that doesn’t need staff. Just like you get those bicycle stands with bikes that take payment from your card. Instal those machines on the car and just use your card, then take it away. You could even pay more to drop it off wherever you want. Sort of like a taxi and car in one. Surpirsed the big chains don’t do this. No staff. Lots of customers. But yeah there is lots of competition. Just have a few cars at each airport under a branded sign. Might work.
“mirrors” or “digital displays” as many are now calling them. The days of shiny silver on glass are coming to an end.

A guide to whatâs legal in the UK if youâre adding under-car neons, or an interior lighting system, or if you're thinking of modifying your carâs headlights.
…”Short honk plus medium honk: Your maneuver was unwise, and I am carrying a grudge. Two short honks and a long blast: Your maneuver was unwise, and all that keeps me from exacting revenge is the prison sentence of 25 years to life. Three long blasts: The prison sentence will be worth it. -*- At a traffic light” but the link is broken for me, wish I knew what it said tbh as honking is an interesting way we use to communicate, like whistling.
Best to do this virally rather than try to get anyone to change the laws. Anyways, Indians and the like wouldn’t adhere to it, they honk just to announce they are on the road and can’t get it together to agree on which side of the road to drive on. Like the idea though.
If you honk your car when you're stuck in traffic you get a £1,000 FINE
Looked them up and they are a thing already, great idea. Not sure how they feel to ride but likely similar to those with 2 wheels at the front or back.

This is being tested in Oregon – “Instead of paying Oregon’s 30 cents a gallon fuel tax, drivers enrolled in the scheme pay 1.5 cents per mile driven. They receive a monthly rebate or are presented with an invoice depending on whether their road-charging bill is higher or lower than the tax paid.”

With a credit card you could “hire” any car. Heh

“Smart” mirrors from Amazon reviewed on YouTube.
Huge number of applications for AU. Some useful some flippant. You, the consumer decide which is which.

More than just an idea, coming to a car near you soon!
Like this idea, maybe just re-purpose old liners and dock them near big coastal cities?
Yes please, for London. It’s not a new idea though.
Or store them underwater, which would be easier than finding land to do underground.
cool they exist, just stick them over the back seats.
Guess most people don’t have a batmobile car – surprised Ford or others don’t do this, its cool free advertising for sure.
This is the type of thing I was meaning, but I only see them for old phones – can’t believe someone isn’t cashing in on this.
Great idea, I would buy. but I only see some for particular cars, rather than popular ones. Where can we buy these?
Someone like these guys could make stack of money out of this idea.
I doubt the app maker could access that info. Unless the car owners submit it themselves, but there is this atm.
They could use this maybe. https://www.godigit.com/traffic-rules/how-to-find-vehicle-owner-details-by-registration-number
The Nissan Land Glider does that and boasts zero emissions.
The anti-roll bar on most cars does this already- its just so good you don’t notice it.
lol, sort of a “car” does this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4bj1eUOXgk
This guy made a diy version a while back. Free!
already exists, good idea, simple enough to use.
Underglow would make them notice you even if they can’t see you!
YEAH NEON UNDERGLOWS FOR INDICATORS!
Like this?
High Level Break Lights already standard on many cars. but in the UK, any fitted light must be working to get past the MOT.
THIS. MULTIPLE HONKS

Couldn’t find anything about what 1 2 and 3 honks mean, but chuffed I found this https://youtu.be/ZIaz96pUUf0

Quadro4 anybody?
Looked them up and they are a thing already, great idea. Not sure how they feel to ride but likely similar to those with 2 wheels at the front or back.
They exist and they are a bit pricey – to say the least! https://rvshare.com/blog/8-awesome-car-carrying-motorhomes-must-see/
God, these are a thing – when 1 motor just isn’t enough!
Looks like these are a thing now for some vehicles.
I came across this company that develops fully autonomous self-inflating tyres.
http://www.selfinflatingtire.com/
The express covered this option, not likely though as nothing happend
Looks like you just stick them to the ground. why not a wall mounted sensor nobody can reach or break?
Any car park could do this using Bosch’s solution.
