” One again. » On the terrace of this bistro on rue de Maubeuge (Paris, 9th arrondissement), after dark, customers have fun counting the number of flashes. From here, they have a breathtaking view of the radar which controls speed, installed about fifty meters further, a stone’s throw from the intersection with rue Condorcet. The one presented as “the first fixed street radar” in the capital pins down vehicles exceeding 30 km/h. Everyone goes there: cars, scooters, motorcycles, buses and even bicycles and scooters.
