More fear than harm

Fortunately, there was no damage, but it is unthinkable for a scene like this to happen in a high-level international race like Paris-Nice. ” How the hell can this happen?“, wondered the commentator of the international channel Eurosport.

On social networks, this driver took it for her rank. The acerbic comments did not fail to criticize it:

“How is it possible not to see the signs indicating that traffic is closed? » or “This poor woman must live near here and wanted to go home by all means… Without worrying about the cycling race! »

Here is the scene on video to give you an idea of the accident that was avoided thanks to the reflex of the cyclists. Luckily, they were professionals and not weekend sportsmen who could have had a completely different reaction…

🗣️ “Oh dear. Oh dear. Oh dear. Now, how on earth does that happen?” 😱
