Ahhh Paris, the city of love, romance, and... traffic jams. It's no secret that traffic jams are also an integral part of the image of Paris, not to mention the difficulties to drive in the capital, whether by bike, electric scooter, car, motorcycle... If the bike paths are accessible to most of the means of locomotion without engine, the bus lanes are however subject to a completely different regulation.
Beware: using bus lanes can cause major disruptions for drivers on the RATP road network, but above all, it is prohibited! Unless you are on a bicycle, driving a cab (except VTC) or an emergency vehicle! Otherwise, you risk a fine of up to €135, according to the Paris municipal police.
If you want to be sure you're riding serenely, but more importantly, in the right place in Paris, on bike paths or on the road, take a look at our guide to where to ride in the capital, whether you had an electric skateboard, a bike, an electric scooter, rollerblades... :
