I hate driving in Paris.

Classic

"I hate driving in Paris."

that is what the subway is for. spent several days there. the first thing we did as get rid of the rental car.

there should be a statue on the top of a french officer with his hands in the air

The only driving I've done in Paris was to either turn in a rental car or drive one out. However, I was compelled to do a few laps around the Arc for good measure. The Metro is the only way to go. My French son-in-law calls me Le Roi du Metro. He prefers to drive in Paris but I like to arrive at my destination the same day I depart!

Their trains are quite functional. As a visitor, there is not much need for a car. A little walking does us good!
