A very chic 'woman of a certain age' parked this unusual car in front of us in the 6th arrondissement. On questioning her, she informed us that it's a Japanese car, AIXAM, that can go only 50 km/hr (~30mph) and because of this, no driving license is required. After she left, the French friend with us said this is the car people drive in France after they lose their licenses for drunk driving.
And see below for a rare Paris sight: an available parking space! I've never seen one before that did not have an idling car nearby ready to pounce into it.
