Looks like a ready market for a well ventilated hi viz jacket - The type with lots of tiny holes

it's not yet, I checked. I'm heading over there next Saturday. There's a protest on the 10th and 11th where '100,000 bikers plan to meet and bring the entire country to a standstill' to protest against the whole hi-viz thing.
I'm not bringing a hi-viz over with me anyway. (I don't own one so not buying one for this trip).

I got a random Breath test bringing my mates VFR home last week so take it easy en France. They ignored the extremely noisy exhaust system as I turned the engine off as soon as I stopped after being pulled over and I wasn't flogging it anyway. Bit un-nerving though!

Thanks for the heads up, I never ever drink and drive, but it's good to know about the random stops just the same.

The hi viz saga and France is a myth and according to a variety of sources was political posturing in pre election campaigning.
The truth of the matter is that the French government had proposed it,but knew it would never pass into law.
The following link gives a liitle further insight into what they really propose.

Somewhat OT, Unlike the French, the RSA has been fairly specific about what they want. http://www.magirelan...ivizbackground/
