Take photos when handing over the car. I suggest you carefully check whether the tires, lighting and braking system are in good condition when you pick up the car. If there is any damage, communicate with the staff of the car rental company in time and ask for a written record of the details of the damage. In addition, it is best to take photos and record the mileage and gasoline consumption to avoid unnecessary disputes in the future.

Buy appropriate insurance as needed, be sure to know the types of auto insurance included in the car rental fee and whether the coverage is comprehensive, and consider buying additional insurance as needed.

Must give way to pedestrians, France's "highway law" (Codedela

Route) stipulates: "Drivers must be polite to pedestrians crossing the road, show obvious intention to cross the road, or drive in the pedestrian priority area and stop politely if necessary. If the traffic police give priority to the fine for disrespecting pedestrians, the fine will be 135 euros.

Some urban roads are forbidden to drive. In France, urban roads are generally narrow and there are many one-way streets, but local people are not slow, so we must be vigilant when driving in urban areas. If the road says "bus" and "taxi", it is a dedicated lane. Please don't drive in this special lane. In addition, there are small gray columns in front of some lanes in France, which require local residents' passes to enter special roads. Don't drive around!

Speed limit, pay attention to the speed limit sign on expressway. France has very strict regulations on speeding. Generally speaking, the speed limit of expressway is 130km/h, the speed limit of main roads is 80km/h, and the speed limit of residential roads is 60.

Km/h. In bad weather such as rain, snow and fog, it is necessary to keep below the maximum speed limit.

Pay attention to the parking rules. If the "PAYANT" sign is written outside the white dotted line, it means that this is an open-air pay parking lot. There are usually automatic payment machines nearby. Pay according to the above tips. The printed receipt indicates the parking deadline and can be placed on the front windshield of the car. The parking spaces marked with GIG Gig and disabled signs can only be used by disabled vehicles, while the parking spaces in the yellow wireframe are for special vehicles and ordinary vehicles cannot be used.

Emergency phone number. In case of an accident, first confirm whether anyone is injured. If yes, call the ambulance number 15 and the police number 17 immediately. If it is only a minor collision, contact the car rental company to discuss the follow-up arrangements.
