I can only agree on what has already been said. The French are amazing when it comes to driving. Last year it took my longer to drive from Chesterfield to Dover [220 miles] than it did to drive from Boulogne to Brittany [350 miles]. And even in a people carrier doing around 130/140 km/h if a BMW [for example] was doing 120 km/h and saw me coming [indicator on ] he would pull in . Since WHEN do people do that in the UK ? If you show a desire to pass someone in the UK it is as if you threatened to kill their whole family while they watched ? People go nuts and make it their mission not to let you past !!!!

Needless to say I am looking forward to my French trip next month
