If they really wanna do Paris a service they should start by dealing with all the pickpockets and bike thief first. My girlfriend has had 4 bikes stolen so far.
Souce: I live in Paris
I will never understand why it's so freaking hard to deal with bike thieves. Should be the easiest thing in the world to catch these people red-handed and make it so that stealing bikes was actually associated with risks. If law enforcement wanted to actually improve the quality of life in cities, it would be an obvious place to start.
Sorry they are way too occupied running after people smoking weed that are the real threat to society
After all it's a slippery slope to doing cocaine, which is a slippery slope to amphetamines, which is a slippery slope to stealing bikes. They take problem by the roots.
