A female protester slaps French President Macron.


A man who appeared to be accompanying the woman proclaimed "Montjoie Saint Denis", a French army battle cry from the past.

This is not the first time Macron has been slapped in the face. In 2019 and again in 2021 he was slapped.

Im not from France but i live here and have seen it happen. A woman was cut up at a rounderbout by a guy in an open top sports car. A set of traffic lights a little further on stopped the sports car. The woman drove up behind him, calmly got out of her car, walked up to the offending driver, slapped his face and returned to her car.

I guess it's less destructive than spreading someone's nose all ovee their face.

Where do you dtive in France, seems to me to be more of a uk thing. That incident is the only incident of road rage ive ever seen here.

Are you confusing priorité à droite with cutting up?

Okay that is legit awesomeness lol
In Australia you’re more likely to get verbally abused for such behaviour. Though I swear I saw someone (likely drunk) throw a boomerang at someone’s car once
Not sure what the infringement was that caused such a response, but damn I wish I was filming at the time instead of driving lmao

I'm not doubting you, but this seems like the sort of story I'd tell after a few beers when working in Sweden. Sometime soon after they express surprise that I have a pet dog, rather than a kangaroo.

I've driven in a few countries, and Australia would be kinda low on my list. It's pretty well organised here (less scary than some of the Asian countries) but considering how well organised the roads are, we have too many rude, pushy drivers.

I preferred driving in Germany, once I was used to it.
