#frenchdrivers

via Insta 10 March 2020: Yes it’s left side here too. Steering wheel on right. 

I’ll be driving 🚸🚗 in France 🇫🇷 in June (we arrive about 1 June to stay for 3 months). I’m ok with either side having lived in the 🇺🇸 USA for 17 years. Though been a while, now, since I’ve driven on the right so will have to adjust quickly. . 

How is it driving in France on the different roads? Any tips? Ive heard all sorts of things about Fench drivers/driving 😁 Yes, been given all sorts of advice, ‘how to’, warnings, recommendations, what to do/not to do. . To be honest, it seems Aussie drivers are no different to their fellow drivers in 🇫🇷 France & 🇺🇸 USA 🙂  

I realise, like in Australia, there will be various types of highway/roadways depending on location, urban, built up, rural, village, expressways, interstates etc As well the road rules including international road rules. 

We have had some v serious road accidents, some resulting in death, here in Sth Australia in the Barossa Valley, due to foreign drivers forgetting &/or getting confused about which side to drive on. It can happen. Memory lapses. . . 

Barossa Valley wine country is Australia’s premium 🍇🍇grape growing & 🍷🍷 wine-producing region & one of the nation’s top tourist destinations 🌝🌏🛫 . It attracts tourists worldwide, international backpackers, students & casual workers many from countries where driving is on the right side.
