8月の駐車スペース事情/Parking Spots Situation during August

普段のパリは、駐車事情がとても悪い。というか混んでる。路上駐車の場所を探すのは大変。路駐は本来チケットが必要だけど、捕まる確率が低い（最近少し上がったと思う）のと罰金が安いので（17ユーロ。これでも高くなったらしい。）、皆路駐しようとします。でもいつもびっちり駐車されてるのよね〜（ーー）

でも8月のパリは人がいない！ので路上駐車スペースもこんな感じです。あまりに顕著に人がいなくて、フランスのバカンスに対する考え方が身に染みる風景。

It's really difficult to find a place to park on street in Paris usually. You need to buy a ticket but since the polices don't come to catch them that often (seems like it raised little recently) and the penalty is not that expensive (17euro. It was even cheaper before), so everybody tries to park on streets. Though it's really difficult to find a spot.

Though in August, you can see from below photo that people are really gone from Paris! You really feel the attitude towards vacation of French people from this ; )
