Smart parking can reduce traffic by making it easier to locate empty parking spaces, thus
lowering the risk of distracted driving. Through the use of sensors that detect whether space is
empty or occupied and lights that indicate this, smart parking technology can help drivers
locate spots. Rather than scan for empty spaces, drivers can easily assess availability through
red and green lights. This would also help them plan their parking maneuver, warning the driver
behind that they are going to pull into space.
