Anyone travelling through France, whose route takes them into/near Paris, Grenoble or Lyon needs to aquaint themselves with the new French LEZ rules. It's another PITA scheme for us to get our heads around, for fear of being robbed legally during our travels, which came into effect in January & is set to be enforced come April 2017. Crit D'Air is likely to spread through most major French Cities that suffer with poor air quality idc.

I was amazed that bikes have been included, as we cannot keep the stickers secure, so I hope the database is sufficiently robust should they be stolen. We shall see - I think I shall be giving these areas a miss until the LEZ plan settles down & Government has had time to respond to all the local protests. Effectively you can no longer enter/drive/ride a classic car/bike in these three cities as no one seems to have looked at the issue of special exemtions.
