The French are still the best when it comes to stupid laws.

As of spring this year it will be compulsory to carry a breathalyzer with you when you drive or ride in France. They cost 1,5 Euro and the fine is 17 Euro if caught without one.

Yes I thought it was a joke as well.

Plus another fine if your sat nav warns of speed cameras....annoyed
