A video posted by TikTok user Hannah G (@hgonzolo) appears to show a San Diego Police Department officer holding a smartphone with one hand and holding the steering wheel with the other while sitting behind the wheel of a patrol vehicle. The clip has since gathered over 3.6 million views, more than 458,800 likes, and more than 4,500 comments.
The video was filmed at an intersection on B Street in San Diego. On-screen text in the video reads, “cops: ‘stay off your phone or get a ticket’ also the cops,” seemingly pointing out what the poster viewed as a contradiction.
