.............reduce the speed limits!
I cannot believe that the French government has managed to get this legislation through, but it appears that from July 1st this year, the speed limit on those lovely deserted, silky smooth D roads is being reduced from 90kph to 80kph. How very dare they. All because they contend that it will save about 400 lives per year, which I personally highly doubt.
What is for certain is that it will raise millions of Euros, a chunk of them from unsuspecting Brits and other easily preyed on 'foreigners'. Lets try and make certain that none of us fall foul of it.
I am all for safer roads but this is just very irritating.
