    I think it's way over the top ;) Those who do drink driving will keep doing so having a breathalyser or not! French police just want to pass the cost on to us, that's all!

    Does the UK have any reciprocal rules against French/continental drivers over here? I find it annoying that whenever we drive over there I have to pay so much for the toll roads whereas they can drive mostly for free on motorways here (I can only think of Dartford tunnel and M6 that they have to pay ;)).

    We are quite lucky not being stopped by French police having driven over there many times without their required stuff, like extra bulbs, reflective jackets and warning signs etc... Wonder how much would they have fined us had they found out? :?

    keep on going there, one day you'll find out :-)
