A video shared on TikTok by Jake Wong shows three Vancouver police officers on the scene, which led some people to question why so many officers were needed for a parking infraction.

“Look at all the cops hard at work šŸ™„,” one person wrote.

However, many comments suggested parking at the bus stop meant the driver was “another entitled Tesla owner.”

“Wish I could afford to disregard the rules of the road and park anywhere,” a TikTok user wrote. “Must be nice to have all that pocket money – I bet a tow is pocket change to the owner.”

Others simply said the video “is so Vancouver.”

“What a joke,” another person added.Ā 

Daily Hive has reached out to the VPD for more information.

In VancouverĀ there is a “zero-tolerance policy” for parking or stopping in a bus zone,Ā according to the City site.

The site warns that “if you park or stop in a bus zone, your vehicle will be ticketed and possibly towed.”
