MP Jean Lassalle parks on a level crossing ... and blocks a train

Late to attend his son's rugby match, the elected centrist of Béarn claims not to have realized his mistake.


“If I had a driver like many colleagues in my rank, that wouldn't happen!

»Jean Lassalle is not an incongruity close, he proved it again this Sunday afternoon in his native Béarn.

The deputy of Pyrénées-Atlantiques parked without knowing it on the level crossing of a line connecting Oloron to Bedous, reports Sud-Ouest.

“I didn't, but then didn't think about the train at all.

And it's true, I parked on the level crossing, ”he admits to the local newspaper.

The reason for this blunder?

His impatience to applaud his son was playing a rugby match between US Aspoise and RC Billère Lescar.

The former presidential candidate was late and “miraculously” came across what he thought was a parking space.

No fine for the chosen one

A gendarmerie patrol will eventually be forced to go into the spans of the stadium to find the culprit.

A train was in fact stationary in front of the vehicle.

“I apologized to the passengers.

Everyone was very nice, ”continues the elected centrist.

If the elected representative therefore regrets, in a slightly provocative tone, his absence of a private driver, he can nevertheless consider himself happy.

No fine was imposed on him.
