Copenhagen parking official’s visor cap
One of the most hated caps in all of Copenhagen, these were worn by the former streetcar conductors who were recruited by the city to write parking tickets. Today, this task has been taken over by a private company, which apparently gives a percentage of the take to whomever writes the ticket. On paper this may seem a good idea, but in practice, it means that today’s ticketers (in bright green baseball caps) are far too enthusiastic and, in my humble opinion, impossible to reason with.
