I wish I had known earlier. We drove around for 2 months last year with our 'gilet' safely buried in our boot. Whoops! Lucky we were not pulled up.Femme Francophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00778722484698200685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794771478399884862.post-62552352227960357392012-03-07T08:37:38.240+10:302012-03-07T08:37:38.240+10:30I discovered the breathalyser obligation only rece...I discovered the breathalyser obligation only recently. I know I have one somewhere! The law concerning "Absence d'un gilet de haute visibilité à portée de main dans l'habitacle d'un véhicule à moteur en circulation" is article R.416-19 § alinéa 2 of the Code de la Route: 0 pat, cas 4 bis (90 euros dans les 3 jours, 135 euros au-delà). Practically all service stations and certainly those on the motorway sell the vests and triangles and will no doubt sell the breathalysers as well.Aussie in Francehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15267719894279001689noreply@blogger.com
