The Arc de Triomphe is the only place in France where responsibility for all accidents is deemed to be 50/50 by insurance companies. Priority is also for those joining the roundabout, not for those already on it.
Omg my mom and I drove around the Arc du Triumphe in circles for sooooo long, couldn't exit, we were laughing so hard I couldn't breathe lol
I love how she genuinely seems like a very sweet person
I’ve driven in Paris, Rome and Milan. Sometimes, you jus have to close your eyes and hope for the best.
Omg she's GORGEOUS with the bob ☺️✨
this stressed me out so badly 😭
Love, the most difficult is not to enter in this roundabout (because you have priority) it’s to exit it but well done for your first time! 👏🏼
oh, the bob is bobbing!! 💅 the hair looks sooo good
It's quite easy as long as you know where your exit is. You don't usually take the inner lane unless you drop someone off the Arc de triomphe, or snap pictures of it. Hug the middle and as exits pass, move right step by step.
Definitely an experience
As someone who is not the best at driving, this is so healing AND educational. thank you ❤️
Learner: «How do you approach this roundabout?» Instructor: «Vibes»
Such a great instructor, encouraging but understanding of how intimidating these things can be; even to experienced drivers. Doesn't make them less scary, but it does make it easier to learn to deal with!
It’s been a rite of passage in my family for many generations : you can have your driver licence but if you did not drive in the Arc de Triomphe, you haven’t proved that your capable of driving. I even met a person who told me that she made each of her children drive backwards in the arc, to prove them that when you do crazy things while driving, people will be to stunned and chocked to dare bothering you
These videos make me grateful to be driving on DFW highways, which are widely considered to be confusing. All the roads I’ve seen on this channel are horrendous.
Aman's driving is super clean. A delight to watch. Corrected myself while driving after watching her classes. Thank you. 🎉
Started watching your videos a couple of years ago out of general curiosity but I realised all your videos were more aligned to the British rules. And now that I'm taking driving lessons in Paris, I see you driving on the same roads as me. Such an interesting coincidence 😊
Hahaha ! Bienvenue sur la place de l'Etoile ! This is probably the most difficult "roundabout" in France. My mother has been driving for about 50 years now and she was never able to drive there. To be fair, they should almost use a different driver license for Paris and the rest of the country seeing how different your mindset must be when driving there. The most confusing part of this specific place is that it is huge, probably something like 7 or 8 lanes. Those lanes are NOT materialized and they are not really used anyways. The traffic is often very busy (on this video, it was very light traffic). And you have to give way to the incoming traffic from the right, where you usually have the priority in regular roundabouts. Nice to see you in our lands, Aman ! :)
As a parisian driver I find the arc the triomphe roundabout MUCH easier than others, it's like 10 lanes wide and there's actually plenty of room ... you just have to be assertive when you ENTER (the ones in the roundabout have to let you come in :they give way to the right). Once you're there you're safer on the first lane around the central island, so you made the right choice, but you would have been just fine on the second lane.
