The incident could have been dramatic.
A bus on line 125, which runs between the Veterinary School of Maisons-Alfort and Porte d'Orléans, was filmed on Wednesday maneuvering in the wrong direction on the ring road, at Porte de Gentilly, in Paris.
The author of the video, the passenger of a car blocked by the maneuver of the bus driver, cannot believe it: “He took the ring road in the opposite direction!
With the world in there... They all almost died.
Obviously, the vehicles had momentarily stopped to let the machine turn around.
“This maneuver is totally prohibited and inexcusable” reacted this Thursday the RATP, which confirms the incident to the Parisian.
“The driver was quickly identified and terminated.
He will be received by his management in the coming days as part of a disciplinary interview.
".
But we still don't know how the driver was able to arrive on the device, and even less, in the wrong direction..
A few staff representatives immediately pointed to the training.
"This incident is the result of a cruel lack of training which has been reduced to its bare minimum to meet the unrealistic productivity objectives of the company", deplores Grégory Thomas, of the Sud transport federation.
Last July, an 80-year-old man took the A7 motorway in the wrong direction in the middle of the night in Isère, hitting another car.
The pensioner killed himself and a 40-year-old man died.
Three people were seriously injured, including a 10-year-old child.
