Marseille is a city without law and order, crazy driver, dirth, crime in the streets. the authorities does not exist and a very good example is the way the Marseillais park.

The Marseillais park everywhere, actually he/she doesn't really bother to park, they simply abandon their cars wherever there is a place. If its in the middle of the buss lane fine, on a traffic island no problems, on the pavement, why not let the pedestrian walk on the road and handle the crazy drivers. Its dangerous and nobody does anything, The mayor has been re-elected and everything is still the same.
Like everything else in France its an accident bound to happen but nobody will try to prevent it untill it happen and then… They will blame everything but themselves. Here is a video I made with just a few example, note where the police is…
