It would be a full time job here for the police. Think of the money they would collect.

Parking fines..
Here is an fun novel idea for generating tens of thousands of Lira for the local Police / Belediyesi coffers.
Employ a Foreign National (Non Turkish speaking) on a commission only basis, give them the power to issue tickets for all parking offences.
When an irate driver returns to the vehicle to remonstrate with the ticket issuer, a simple Cyprus shrug of the shoulders (you know the one) a "sorry I don't speak Turkish" hand them a piece of paper with the offence clearly indicated in Turkish.
No nepotism, favouritism, partisanism, or any other "ism" for that matter.
Imagine the hours of entertainment for tourists, sipping a cold beer in their favourite town centre restaurant, (the ones with the restricted access due to parked vehicles).........Priceless....
