You know what's even funnier than people saying poor people can afford cars?
The idea that they can afford a driving license.
while in the US it's something like 50 bucks and a lollipop, in France it's closer to 1500€ for the whole thing.
Before when conscription was a thing, you could just have your license when serving for the army and that was a relatively cheap way to get a leg up,
Chirac killed that so now the only way are either saving up a lot of cash or taking a loan to get a license.
Interestingly that's something Macron want to make cheaper....because fuck that expensive shit.
e: Found a source saying 1300€, close enough
