Can anyone help me as to what is needed to meet their specs and regs?





Yellow vest, good rioting ability, ability to shrug
nonchanently, ...

I thought you could do it with ring-mains, a la UK and
they would not give a flying canard ?.

In theory I thought you could.


Reference to a book on Amazon here in this relevent thread posted
by another 'nicy' -

Not sure if it is the one already scanned though


And some **** about carrying a breathalyser kit, spare bulbs[1], warning
triangle and other **** like driving on the wrong side of the road?

TBH I actually have the first aid kit and hi viz in my car.

I have to beat the 5000 Euros the French want to rewire it.

Already covered that one:-)

Download the maps of France into my phone and go off line and then use

And then probably have a **** next to a French speed camera.


If you use the Waze navigation app, 9 times out of 10 speed cameras will be
marked as €œpolicemen€.

Not normally. I thought that was a front view?
