[LM24] Driving to Le Mans (Radar and Hi-Vis Vests!)

[Tim the Grey]

Hi viz vests sorted, thanks for the Tesco tip.
They are £4 for 4 now, but still a bargain!
In the boot of the Golf right now, along with spare bulbs, and triangle.

Beginning to get warm,fuzzy feeling...

Take car the hi viz vest must be inside the car and available to put on before leaving the car, suggest you put it either under the seat or as I have done under the floor mat.

Or as I have done in the pocket on the back of the passenger seat: extend the left arm and there it is.

GT6's reminder about in the car not the boot is vital! The gendarmes could have you for not having it inside the car and then could have you again for not having put it on before leaving the car.

SANEF the French motorway authority state that only one per car is required.

Their site is also useful if you want to avail yourself of one of their transponders - it enables you to use the orange Liber-T channels at the peages and get through without paying......



....until you get he bill a few weeks later!

I've had one for a couple of years now and wouldn't be without it.
