Driving in France - July 1st changes
As of July 1st you need to have a yellow safety vest and a safety triangle in your car when driving in France. There will probably be quite a few police controls over the next few weeks to check that people have these two items.

If you do not have these two items you will get a warning. As of Oct. 1st, the fine for not having these two items will be Euro 130.

We even have Karl Lagerfeld acting as the "model" for the safety campaign. Not bad:)

According to FR3 tonight there is little stock left in France so you would have a better time to do your shopping in CH.
