Chances are you’re probably familiar with the rules of the road in the UK. But European countries may have their own, different rules. It is important to understand what these are so you can stay safe and keep out of trouble when driving or caravanning abroad.
France
You must be 18 to drive in France. Whilst you don’t need an International Driving Permit, you do need the valid UK driving licence and insurance. You also need to display a valid GB sticker on the left-hand side of the registration plate of your vehicle. This law came into play in September 2021.
