More than 54% of the votes cast in the low-turnout election supported the measure to triple parking fees for large SUV drivers from out of town


So if you own a large SUV but are from Paris you don’t have to pay this increased fee? Wouldn’t this mean that a party of 6 would have to rent two vehicles, doubling the traffic and increasing their environmental impact?

Fairly certain that most Parisians don’t drive SUVs due to direct cost as well as gas prices.

They drive little shitbox Peugeots which get set on fire by “youths” every weekend.

I think the goal is walking, biking, or public transit. Not renting multiple SUVs to bebop around

Why are you renting a vehicle in Paris? Rent one to drive elsewhere maybe but you arent getting hit with this fee then.
