J'espère que l'état va leur venir en aide pour leur permettre de récupérer au moins leur frais de voyage. Après tout ce ne sont pas des criminels partis pour faire de la piraterie en mer ou du kidnapping. Ce sont plutôt les sapeurs, samu ou croissant rouge qui devait leur transporter au lieu d'une voiture de la gendarmerie
