Paris transport

I have experienced travelling in Paris by car, it can be dreadful. I overheard one man this morning describe his daughter as taking 90 minutes to go 6km (4 miles). I realised that my 24km in the same time the other day was relatively good.

So the local hospital has a serious problem to solve. Today on my walk home (to the hôtel) I saw that the hospital also had a serious solution.

In the picture you can see the ambulance "car park" ("samu parking" in French). There were some more conventional vehicles in the background, but this department at least is well prepared.

Funny enough that this is the first time I have noticed it. Perhaps it has always been in use at other times?!
