2. Where to you keep it when it's not in use? Is there a reason you can't just leave it in the window (or sitting on top of your dashboard where you can't help but see it and stick it where it needs to be when you park?)

I'm all in favor of technology to assist with problems like this, but this sounds like it really needs a no tech solution.

1. If the permit is not there I could get an expensive parking ticket. The lot is managed by a private parking lot company.

2. I don't leave the permit up for two reasons:

i) It's a hang tag for the rearview mirror but is very loose. If I drive with it hanging from the mirror and go over a speed bump or around a sharp corner the tag flies off and inevitably ends up someplace hard to retrieve, like way under the seat. It's also coated in slippery plastic so can't just leave it lying out on the dash or seat or it will slide off.

ii) The tag clearly states the address of where I work in print large enough to be read by anyone walking past my car and I don't necessarily want to provide this information to everyone everywhere I go.
