What is a "wheel clamp"?
A wheel clamp is a metal device that is attached to a vehicle's wheel to prevent it from moving. It is usually used by authorities to stop vehicles that are parked illegally or have unpaid fines. The clamp locks around the wheel, making it difficult to remove without permission. It is designed to be strong and difficult to break, ensuring that the vehicle stays in place until the issue is resolved. Wheel clamps are commonly seen in parking lots, restricted areas, and on streets where unauthorized parking is not allowed.
Example
The parking enforcement officer placed a wheel clamp on the illegally parked car to ensure it would n't be driven away.
Drivers often face fines and inconvenience when their cars are fitted with a wheel clamp for parking violations.
