I don't know, it seems like a fairly minimalist OS.

I suspect that some paid places use automated license plate readers to check for non-payment, or could be checking manually but having all the cars front-in could still save the manual checker the labor of walking around cars.

edit: In recent years I've actually been in parking garages and seen seen a hapless security guard walking car to car, photographing the back of each one. (I've also seen 'meter-readers' doing the same thing in paid street parking areas.) I wouldn't be surprised if a car-mounted version also existed, which is what I meant when I speculated about automation.

I think I saw that F3 is cross-platform. ~~I used something else last time I needed it (it was a microSD), but I'm struggling to remember what it was. I'll update you if I remember.~~ Nope, it was F3!

No prob! Good luck, and prepare for disappointment. This sounds sketchy.

h2testw, F3 and FakeFlashTest keep coming up as recommended for this.

Which OS?

This and make sure to use the right test method. Sketchy SSDs will pretend to accept all the data you put in 'em, and then just silently throw away data that's over their capacity. Use a method that writes and then verifies.

Tight timeline, but I guess you could be a grandparent.

From your original handwriting example, I thought you were suggesting that the way you were taught, letter "o" and "a" always have the leading stroke (like Larson's standalone "a"), even when the letter starts a word. Sorry, I may have misunderstood.

The a in Gaffney doesn't have the leading stroke from your handwriting example.

Explain the a in "Gaffney."
