Toronto Police tow 29 vehicles this morning in parking blitz



Some Toronto drivers discovered their cars were not where they left them Monday. It's all part of a new crackdown on illegally parked vehicles, and now many are facing a trip to the impound yard.

Toronto Police said they towed 29 vehicles during the morning rush. An additional seventy were ticketed for other violations.

City residents and commuters have complained for years about people parking in live lanes of traffic. Mayor John Tory promised in his election campaign to put a stop to that.

The ongoing initiative seeks to ease congestion through the downtown core.

What do you think? Are you in favour of the program, or does it punish drivers making a quick stop?
