andyinbattle Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 We are moving to France in about 3 weeks time and have heard that there is a restriction on certain days, possibly Sunday, for lorries travelling on toll roads. We would be driving a 7 tonne lorry down on Friday, coming back on Monday. Is this OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opalienne Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 So long as you don't travel on Sunday you'll be fine. It's only then that the restrictions ocurr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opas Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 I think you will find you are wrong there. If it is for personal use and under 7.5 tonne you will be OK. Mrs O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevinmc Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 There are plenty of lorries on the autoroute at the weekend. Most non french truckers ignore the rule, french fresh food transport is permitted and 2 weeks ago I passed a small convoy, including an artic, carrying 'pigeons voyageur'You'll be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnM Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Under 7.5 and for own use you'll probably be fine, but anything else you takes your chance. My brother in law met some very unhappy English truckers at a cash point withdrawing their fine and debating on what they could do for the day until they could drive again!
