The air quality in Paris leaves much to be desired, and therefore, the French capital today banned for anyone with an ‘even’ number plate. Tomorrow are the odd combinations on the turn.

By a combination of a lot of sun and little wind the last days smogvorming in the Paris basin has occurred. Meanwhile, the air quality is so appalling that the above rigorous measures are taken. Parisians will have their Sacred Cow one of these two days so have to miss, the 911 GT3 RS in the above picture is tomorrow at his garage glued.

Or the authorities also to make an exception for EV’s is not clear, I can imagine that they’re not specifically in the regulation are taken into account, but it can be tolerated. As an alternative, you can Parisians all free to make use of more environmentally friendly facilities, such as bicycle and public transport.

Sheiks and other (rich) external people that his wheels in Paris has also has no burden of the action: cars with foreign license plates are exempt from the rules.

Belgium has also suffered from smog: at the end of last week, went on some highways because of this, the maximum speed down. The problems go as yet passed the Netherlands.
