Not just yet, at the moment it is only a proposal by people with too much time on their hands

There will no doubt be some lobbying.............might be allowed out on Sundays and Bank Holidays.........never go to Paris even with the modern...........better going by TGV

And they are reducing the speed limit on the Peripherique (BP) - that's a laugh -any time I have had the misfortune to have to drive the BP it's been jammed packed bumper to bumper stop and go - with stinking exhaust fumes everywhere, and motorbikes weaving through the jam slamming wing mirrors out the way as they go! :roll:

Me and a friend (Owns a 1972 Rover 2000 TC, part owns two AEC's) would happily go to Paris if we could to lobby this. Well I said happily but Paris is a dump so................

This ruling won't go ahead so we can relax.
