Take care Place Capitole

Not for the bag snatchers his time (though they are still about) but for the automatic traffic barriers. To control the circulation of cars through the Toulouse square a system of barriers has been installed which are buried in the ground and rise up when the lights turn red. It seems that they are not always visible if the car has stopped too close to the line and about 6/8 motorists per month simply run into them (out about 3000 per day). They must be pretty solid these "plots" - posts, as mainly the cars come off worst.
