Title: Flics in "Aire" (Motorway Service Areas)
Post by: termietermite on May 21, 2006, 09:11:25 am

A friendly warning to all those coming here via motorways.  The flics (gendarmes) have developed a new habit of setting up radar traps in the "Aires" (service areas) so take care to stick to the 50kph limit until you have a clear view!

Good advice thanks.

What are they up to on the motorways in terms of speeding ?  Not that I would of course !

The one time we've been done we just tried to keep it polite and they "reduced my sentance" by lowering the actual kph I had been doing so I got away with a 90 euro fine. (English car, 72 registration, English licence).
