It's definitely impossible to drive like that in Paris nowadays. I spent a few days there with a rental car last September and, honestly, I'd rather have been at work than on that "vacation." I've been to Paris a lot and just don't like it. Taking a car there makes it worse. Driving in the rest of France is relatively civilized, but driving in Paris blows. Driving in Germany is wonderful, total order and lawfulness. Love it.
