On Wednesday, French President Emmanuel Macron announced that France would enter a full lockdown from midnight on Thursday until the end of November due to the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic.
With hours to go before the month-long national lockdown takes effect, videos have surfaced on Twitter, showing massive traffic jams of people trying to escape the city as lockdowns go into effect.
“Traffic is barely moving in every direction as far as the eye can see. Lots of honking and frustrated drivers,” said one Twitter user.
