Back in January, Toronto Mayor John Tory vowed to crack down on illegal parking, promising to tag and tow any vehicle illegally parked on downtown streets.

“It’s time to put law-abiding people and businesses first in the city of Toronto,” Tory told the Globe and Mail on Jan. 5. “It’s time to say, ‘No matter how important your business may be, it cannot be carried on in a way that is contrary to the law and in a way that inconveniences thousands of other people.'”

Apparently that doesn’t apply to members of the Toronto Police Service when it comes to the important business of lunch.

A YouTube user posted a video Monday that shows a Toronto cop clearly parked in a bike lane at the corner of Church and Wellesley in order to respond to a critical matter at the Hero Burger outlet. She appears from the restaurant with her lunch, unlocks her cruiser and drives away.

Now sure, police are allowed to park wherever they want. And it’s probably good that this cop is close to her cruiser in the event that there’s a call and she needs to react quickly.

But really, if a cop is grabbing a quick lunch, shouldn’t she find a reasonable parking spot like the rest of us? As one Reddit user put it: “I guess if it’s only 2 minutes I’ll start doing that too.”

What do you think?
