9/10, I guess French and Swedish traffic rules aren't so different.

Ah - no fear involved (I laugh at danger and tweak the nose of fear, and on top of that my great great great grandfather was the Duke of Wellington so I have always felt that with regard to France my family does not need to prove anything ) - just no intention of going there.

Wellington Now he's a Southern toff if ever I saw one, although of course he was born in Dublin so was a Paddy toff too. Didn't know you were from the "old" country, thought you were just old Can't see the resemblance myself and I'm pretty sure his thumbs worked properly ? My ancestors came over with William Le Conqueror, the bastard, so I bat for both sides, er

10. But then I've been doing as much mileage over there as in the UK for some years now.
You can get a bit paranoid looking to see if there are give way or stop lines on every junction on your right. As Pilgrim says it varies a lot from one area to another.
The French sometimes seem a bit surprised when a UK-reg car stops to give them priority. On the other hand, you also get the odd white van hurtling out of a blind side street without looking, so it's best to err on the safe side.
