When you’re pulling into a Chipotle parking lot, you probably don’t expect to witness anything wild. Maybe a long line or a missing online order, at most.
But for one man in New York, TikToker Jayden (@jayden_moffitt), that trip turned into a front-row seat to something more chaotic.
In a trending TikTok video that’s racked up over 238,000 views, he records exactly what he saw.
‘Straight up Making Love in Front of Chipotle’
“I won’t even pop a pimple with my windows down or no tints,” he begins. “And these guys…”
Then, he flips the camera to the car parked next to his.
In the other vehicle, a woman sits on a man’s lap in the backseat, and there’s questionable movement. From the angle, it looks like the pair might be getting intimate right there in broad daylight.
“Are straight up making love in front of Chipotle,” he adds, sounding both shocked and amused.
“Free will if I’ve ever seen it,” Jayden adds in the video’s caption.
Commenters Can’t Believe What They’re Looking At
The comments section quickly filled with people trying to make sense of the situation. Some joked, others were clearly uncomfortable.
“In a fishbowl is crazy,” one person wrote, referring to how visible the car’s interior was.
“I’m such a hater, I would’ve called the cops,” someone else added.
A third person imagined the logistics: “Bro said pull up on my 10 min break.”
“Bro backseat action directly in front of the Chipotle in a fishbowl is insane work,” another commenter said.
Is That Even Legal in New York?
It’s not entirely clear what the two people in the backseat were actually doing. But if viewers’ assumptions are right, and it was a public sexual act, the law doesn’t look kindly on that.
In New York, engaging in sexual behavior in a place where others can see it, whether that’s a parking lot, a park, or a public restroom, can lead to charges of public lewdness. That’s a misdemeanor offense and can come with fines, probation, or even jail time, especially if someone has a prior conviction.
And if the situation involves minors or takes place near a school, prosecutors may escalate the charge, which could mean harsher sentencing and the possibility of being added to the state’s sex offender registry.

What Counts as a Public Space?
You don’t have to be in a crowd for something to count as “public.” In New York, that label applies to anywhere other people might reasonably show up or pass by. That includes parking lots, sidewalks, fast food drive-thrus, beaches, public transportation, and businesses like Chipotle.
So while your car might feel private, the law disagrees, especially if someone else can clearly see what’s going on inside.
