Cars in Paris last night (29 October) brought the city to a standstill, with a record-breaking 438-mile traffic jam seen snaking through the capital just hours before France entered its second coronavirus lockdown.
Cars were seen queuing along the Sébastopol Boulevard in the centre of Paris on Thursday night, with figures from the official traffic monitoring website Sytadin showing that the line reached 438 miles (706km) - breaking the previous French record of 391 miles (629km), which was seen last December amid public transport strikes.
