Driving through Paris

[@planetoftheatheists6858]

Thanks for making this video, I'm going there next week...aaand i'll be using the train

[@moussetache1815]

Best and only reasonable decision one can make for moving inside Paris! Not a driver but I was born here. Not saying driving is impossible but good luck finding room to park your car and also save some money to do so, not to mention the road raging. The metro system is way enough and a good way to explore the city (line 6 in particular). edit - hey, just noticed your comment is 2 months old. How was your stay?

[@S7EVE_P]

Essentially its just like driving in London, England; same pushing in, same dicks on the road, same cars, same queues, same dreary grey scenery - same watching your life pass by in a queue while you look at someone picking their nose in the car next to you. Only difference is they drive on the right. Enjoy.

I live in France, therefore I drive on french roads everyday and I can say that Paris and the chaos that we can see on this video is not at the image of what we can experience on other places of the country. French who do not live in Paris hate driving in this city.

[@Kaykay-p]

I miss the Arc de Triumph. You drove by my favorite place; the park I always went to clear my head!!!!!! No place like Paris!

[@Spooms1961]

I'm truly amazed at the traffic you show on this video. And I thought Melbourne, Australia was bad. Holy Farking Hell! We clearly have absolutely NO TRAFFIC PROBLEMS AT ALL! We actually get to travel many kilometres on our daily commutes without stopping. We may go slow at times, but it is actually absolutely nothing compared to Paris. Also, no-one seems to be using their horns. I use mine all the damn time here. I'm genuinely shocked. I will never be driving in Paris, it seems. I will only use public transport unless absolutely necessary. Thanks for sharing.

[@jotapeortiz]

Hmmm, i think that, if in Paris, i'd better ride the subway.

[@alexandrenadal7792]

Paris et sa banlieue est un enfer pour les "provinciaux". Nous sommes stressés au volant et pas très courtois. Mais au moins, si tu sais conduire ici, tu sais conduire partout !

[@Sdot36]

Looks like driving in Washington D.C. to me. Both places have crazy drivers!!!

[@philiptonee6334]

Lived in Washington, DC for 45 years. Agree! ;-)

[@dmytryb5858]

Sean Carter go to NYC youll see a real haos

[@govnor1495]

Thank you. Interesting how it's the same traffic nightmare as in the rest of the world!

[@sergiogr]

Nice tour, thanks for the upload.

[@TheTherese3]

The Capital of the World!

[@MattUK36]

After London, New York, Berlin, Madrid and Tokyo, perhaps.

[@yisseriantar]

Matt Owen berlin and madrid ??? you're crazy guy ok for ny and london, tokyo maybe but madrid and berlin mwahahaha

[@Fro7enDesigns]

TheTherese3 The capitals of the world are London paris and NYC. Madrid is nothing, it's pretty shitty and it's not even ranked as a global city. Paris London and NYC have a huge foreign population. Tokyo is pretty much 100% japanese. Berlin is nice but doesn't compare.

[@dmytryb5858]

TheTherese3 royale capitale du Monde. PARIS.

[@mrcouscous1]

i love paris thanks for this movie thank you very much

[@ChemistryAtomistic]

So dense traffic!

[@arnoudmulder]

'go with the flow' was the best solution as it turned out. At 0:15:00 I actually wanted to go straight on but found myself in the 'crossfire' therefore I decided to go left. Then it was like the world was turned upsidedown. If you watch the traffic lights the crossing traffic moves when my light is green and my direction moves when the light is red. Also nice to watch is the red and black car in front of me at 00:16:00 - both want to go first.

[@veronicatodd5962]

Wow! Je t'aime paris💖

[@feisaldianga511]

Paris is one of the greatest cities in Europe, deep in history and fun to leave.

[@Potentialaj]

Thanks so much for this video, but is it always cloudy there?? Wth!!

[@kikaleon]

Oh boy... I think I am going to freak out. I am just about to leave Florida, to go to Paris and I rented a car.... I am thinking I will park the car to the nearest metro station and then just get the car when I am on my way back to where I will be staying. Is that a good idea? I will be about 13km from the Eiffel Tower.

[@blamemeblameme7980]

looks like the traffic here in New York City

[@colorado2836522]

Thank you very much, honestly, Arnoud Mulder.

[@TheHabibalby]

I'm going this summer to Berlin and planning to rent a car from Berlin and will drive to Munich towards Paris. .. any tips or precautions would you give? Thanks,

[@Red-mg6wo]

lmao, MIND BLOWN!

[@edwinvp]

Gaaf! Ben er ook pas geweest met de auto. Feest der herkenning! Prima hoe je gewoon rustig blijft: de manier om er ongeschonden weer uit te komen ;-) Trek je niets aan van dat girly-girl gedoe in de comments!

[@LIFE4VW]

Why there are no lanes on the main roads? Maybe that's one of the reasons why is so much chaos there. What do you think arnoudmulder

[@gabrielmillien7439]

Nice video

[@treinensjakie71]

Mooie kwaliteit en soepele video.. dat kan je van dat verkeer niet echt zeggen.. :D ;)

[@HomerBeeSimpson]

where is da road lines? :D

[@lazyfreedom98]

france needs civilization

[@Fro7enDesigns]

lazyfreedom98 France is civilization.

[@Red-mg6wo]

LUNATICS!

[@brickyyomama]

0:15:00 -- 0:16:00 looks rather chaotic, god knows how am gonna manage

[@FakeTheAntivirus]

where are the road markings?

[@pierrepinson2906]

🌹Stop complaining and enjoy PARIS🌷🌼🏵🌸💐🇫🇷The most BEAUTIFUL city in the WORLD🌹. If you are not HAPPY, go back to yours cities.

[@asifnasim7010]

It is a good idea to ride a motorcycle on these roads.

[@pipm9644]

OH, THATS WHY I SEE SO MANY

[@Red-mg6wo]

What camera were you using, a GoPro?

[@arnoudmulder]

a 1080p carcam from DealExtreme www.dx.com/p/5-0mp-wide-angle-car-dvr-camcorder-w-8-ir-led-night-vision-4x-digital-zoom-hdmi-tf-2-0-tft-lcd-103352#.VLrDsGdzUYs

[@Red-mg6wo]

Ah very nice, does a great job! I've been using my GoPro but want something more functional and suited for the job.

[@arnoudmulder]

The carcam is easy to use. It turns on when the car starts en stops after a delay when the car is turned of. It records onto a memorycard until it's full. I have a bunch of those cards in my car and empty them now and then to my computer. Until now I kept everything from january 1st 2012 until now. It's about 1TB per year.

[@Red-mg6wo]

Thanks very much for the info I need to get me one, they are great for everyday use for insurance and recording the mentally insane people on the roads haha.

[@arnoudmulder]

cheers

[@Red-mg6wo]

It's a free for all, god help tourists trying to drive there.

[@Thesroth]

The Paris traffic is chaos, it is worse than in India.

[@Fro7enDesigns]

***** India is 3rd world though. Any big western city (mostly Paris, London and NYC) is like this.

[@9430872702]

+Thersoth It's way better.

[@snois2]

15:00 and forward: cluster fuck of cars is it supposed to be like that?

[@vibingwithvinyl]

Note to self: never, ever, ever drive in Paris. I wouldn't be able to cope. Not due to lack of skill, but lack of patience.

[@thebeachkid1123]

Londons busier I think XD

[@oliverhernandez1735]

Paris would just like to visit but not to live

[@amopastorcanadense]

someone got pissed at 16:24..

[@hazard9970]

I thought UK was bad

[@rasmusmagnussen]

1:05:00 from here it's a fucking mess

[@Potentialaj]

Rasmus Magnussen 😂😂😂

[@Kartracer6]

I don't understand. Is there no training on driving in France? moments like 15:16 make me believe people don't understand traffic signals. Are they not educated on lane usage and traffic signals? I would expect this from countries like India that have no driving education programs but in a county like France it seems odd.

[@yassinoulad1420]

People dont care about rules in a city with 12m people
