Safety illustration around an Inoui TGV - ROMUALD MEIGNEUX / SIPA

Sunday afternoon, the stop at Le Creusot station for the TGV Inoui Paris-Nice 6169 was not on the program. But because of an injunction to get off the train, allowed "in particular in the event of disturbing public order or compromising the safety of persons" recalls the SNCF, the controller had to stop in Burgundy. Objective: to get off the train a man who refused to wear his mask, relates Le Parisien .

The railway security officers had to force the recalcitrant to get off the train prematurely. He was also fined 135 euros. The situation exasperated the other passengers somewhat, although the 10-minute delay due to this unscheduled stop was made up.

On board the #TGV between #Paris and #Nice, a man was disembarked from the train because he refused to wear his #mask ... This causes delays for all passengers. The #antimasques you go too far in the #incivism! Protect ourselves from each other! @TGVINOUI

This kind of scene is however extremely rare, assures the SNCF to Parisian  : "more than 95% of the travelers respect the instructions and the major part of the remaining 5% agree to wear it after control (and verbalization)".
