Salerno has declared war on illegal parking attendants, and residents are responding with a flurry of reports through the YouPol app. The initiative, launched by Police Commissioner Giancarlo Conticchio, is bearing fruit: on Saturday evening alone, at least four reports were received, allowing officers from the Flying Squad to intervene and fine an illegal parking attendant in the city center.

The app YouPolIntroduced in 2017, the system allows specific crimes, including illegal parking, to be reported directly to law enforcement. And the response has been swift: so far, the municipal police have fined 155 illegal parking attendants.

In recent days, the State Police has intensified checks, leading to a significant number of interventions: two people were reported at large with a ban on returning to Salerno, four others were reported with a ban on accessing urban areas, while four others were issued an Urban Daspo. The crackdown has become even more severe in recent weeks, when two illegal parking attendants were arrested for violence, assault and extortion.
