The speed cam rule baffles me. They are there because it's a danger spot and you need to slow down. So why is a warning on the satnav illegal? Are the police looking for safety or to nick someone?

As for breathalysers ...
I know, it is totally daft but France is all about taxing the shit out of people, 40% of the population are employed in some way by the government.

The rozzers wait for you as you come in to the toll booths and they can work out average speed due to booth to booth times. That said I have never been stopped and not picked up a ticket despite a few high speed runs in my old 911 and AMG.

oddly, if you live in a rural part of France and get done drink driving you still have the right to drive a low powered 2 seater (like a g whizz)
