This "driver" should be shot! He failed to stop for a pedestrian, performed an illegal u-turn, cut off a motorcyclist disregarding his presence on the road and failed to stop for a pedestrian a second time. Deport his Mercedes ass back to Europe!

This is a long time coming. I spent a lot of time in Manhattan when I lived in New York and finding, fighting for and even affording parking is a nightmare. Skypark's efficient use of space and energy makes better use of exisiting volume and creates more parking space in the same foot print. Security is also a major plus. A NY crime ring actually removed entire engines from new cars in and replaced them with junker engines in a single day! While people were at work! They did caught, eventually

I think this is a great idea. Open space for parking is getting real scarce and I am tired of having to drive up multiple levels in existing parking structures. I usually end up parking on the uncovered roof top level and as the video points out, there is no security for my vehicle after I leave it.
Sky park are totally secure that if the transport system are broken or needer repare you may have to wait for your car for a week or more?

Youre correct, the Apex Skypark Robotic Parking facility is totally secure. Secure from theft, vandalism, scratches, dings and environmental elements. Your question: what happens if the transport system breaks down? Answer is: there is no signal point failure. The system has multiple redundancies; multiple transports, lifts; entry/exit points; and backup controllers. In addition to the multiple redundancies, the systems equipment is built with highly reliable industrial grade components

Guess the technology never took off considering the video looks and sounds like late 80's early 90's.

The video is old but the message remains the same, where there's a parking problem we have a parking solution. Our fully automated Robotic Parking Garages allow developers the opportunity to achieve their parking goals using aesthetically pleasing facades and reducing the footprint of the building by approximately 50%

I can see some problems with this -- What if someone stays in the car? What if someone loses/gets their ticket stolen? What if someone steals a car, parks it here then destroys the ticket? With only one person running the whole thing, can he be trusted with being able to resist theft of customers' cars, which I imagine would be really easy?

4) With only one person running the whole thing, can he be trusted with being able to resist theft of customers' cars, which I imagine would be really easy? Automated Parking Garages in general are safe; 1) you need a ticket to retrieve the car; 2) you need the car keys; 3) no access within the garage, stairs, lighting, ramps, etc... 4) employees login and computer generates audit trail showing detailed transactions and times.
