ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for securing a vehicle parked in a selected location to prevent its theft. The apparatus includes a stanchion supporting a pivotally mounted bumper engaging arm. The arm includes a portion projecting outwardly of the stanchion toward the vehicle when the vehicle is to be locked in place. In this position of the arm, an extension on the end of the arm extends upwardly to fit behind the vehicle bumper for thereby preventing movement of the vehicle away from the stanchion. A drive is provided for driving the arm between an inoperative position and an operative position for securing the vehicle. A coin operated arrangement is employed for energizing the drive after the vehicle is moved into position adjacent the stanchion.
