The culture of theft is, alas, way bigger than our little list. Well, the culture of wronging others, generally; my line of work (IT) has had to commit an ever-increasing portion of its resources to security.
But a concept like the one shown in the video could be employed in a "lock-up" society like ours, with guide lines around parking racks to show people which side of the rack to use, etc. It would be complete if you could include a device that would swallow up any moped that is illegally parked at a bike parking rack... That video would've been more illustrative if it included a "before" shot, from the previous day around the same time, to show how/where people parked without the lines.
