If it is damp, if it is raining, if there is the slightest mist, the speed limit drops to 110kph.

For those caught at over 50kph over the prevailing limit and whose cars were impounded, it is likely you'll get fined 750€ at court and will wait until September until it gets to court before you can recover your car. France closes down in July and August which is why you'll wait until then. You may also get up to a two year ban from driving in France.

The Times wrote:Not carrying the triangle and jacket, or failing to use your hazard lights when stopped on the roadside, will earn you an instant €90 (£79) fine, and allowing children under 10 to travel in the front seat will cost you €135 (£118).

France has dry- and wet-weather speed limits. In dry conditions, the maximum permitted speed is 50kph (31mph) in town and 90kph (55mph) in the country. On dual carriageways and non-toll motorways, the limit is 110kph (68mph), rising to 130kph (80mph) on toll roads — these reduce by about 10% in wet weather.

Unbelievably, the official speed limit on the Paris Périphérique is just 80kph (49mph), and you break the limit at your peril: French police now collect on-the-spot fines ranging from €68 (£59) for those caught going less than 20kph (12mph) over the limit to €1,500 (£1,318) for those nicked at 50kph (31mph) over, and if you can’t pay — cash only, s’il vous plaît — they’ll hold on to your car until you find the money.

If you are caught going more than 31mph over the limit, les flics could also confiscate your car. If you’re flashed by a speed camera, it’s unlikely you’ll have to pay the fine — the DVLA admits that cross-border co-operation “is still a long way off”.

And use the passing lane for overtaking only — few things rile French cops more than a rosbif cruising in the outside lane, and it could cost you €135 (£118).
