Eloquent record, for the gendarmes, last weekend, in Lozère. The road safety units of this department, the least populated in France, distributed around sixty tickets to motorists and bikers in two days. A “final” report, deplore the soldiers, on their Facebook page.
Among the plums that fell on Saturday and Sunday, there were around twenty speeding tickets (including two between 40 and 50 km/h over the authorized limit), three driving under the influence of alcohol, and one another under the influence of narcotics. The gendarmes also sanctioned crossings of a continuous line, non-respect of the Stop sign, telephones while driving or dangerous overtaking.
On the eve of a new weekend of holiday departures, the gendarmes of Lozère invite drivers to respect the Highway Code: “Your safety is our priority, write the soldiers Together, we can prevent accidents and preserve lives. Every gesture counts to guarantee safe and secure journeys. »
