Ron Avery Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 LoiretteI suppose that you know its not necessary to change to a French license unless the Gendarmes tell you you have to in order to get points taken off it, or there are age advantages in changing , ie you are approaching 70?? UK licenses despite not having a "current" address are perfectly legal in France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
