Hi guys,
If you noted we have been on hols!!
We went to France. Starting from Avignon Airport.
It is the only airport we have been to with only one plane on the ground
We had hired a car from Avis. The online site offered Fiestas but we got a citroen C3.
Not a bad little car, good Aircon and quite nippy.
Have any of you been to France and driven?
Anyone travel there frequently?
I found that nearly all French drivers follow right up your rear before pulling out to overtake They also seemed to do the same with HGVs, being right behind where vision of the road was eliminated
Then there were the, what appear to be; zebra crossings:blink:
When using these as a pedestrian you needed to take extreme care:amazed:
I was crossing one in Cavillion to go to the Station for info on buses.
The left lane was for traffic turning off that road.
Cars stopped for me and I started to cross but halfway over a youngish woman came steaming over from the right hand side, nearly knocked me down and then went left:amazed::sad2:
Anyone got experience/s of their HC?
A few years ago in Cannes I spoke to a policewoman about the fact that, although a road had a No Entry sign cars were still going through it.
I stated what the sign meant here!
Her reply?
Hah but you are in France now:blink::amazed:
Anyway we are back now so you can expect more posts soon
