The French seem keen to ensure you don't get caught by the gendarmes in a speed trap. We were warned well in advance this year, by oncoming traffic flashing their lights, before each speed trap. They are also much less frequent than over here.

On the other hand, if they do catch you, it's a hefty on the spot cash fine or a visit to the local bastille
