I think they take photos of every vehicle that's parked, then run them against the paid parking fees for that zone and they'll give you some leeway to make the payment.

For example, if the photo is taken at 4:03 and you started your session at 4:05, you won't get a ticket, but if the photo is taken at 4:03 and you started your session at 4:30, you'll probably get the ticket. If there's no payment record for your vehicle at all, then you get one too.
