Parking validation. They feed it to the machine on their way out.

Haven't paid your latest potty mouth fine yet? No validation for you.

They collect them. And when they have enough they can trade them in for a large stuffed animal.

They get weighed so it can be added to car weight to ensure all the regs are being followed.
