I go to France every year and have done so for the past ten years. I
have noticed slower speeds on the "N" routes and the back country
roads but my last foray onto A4 between Paris and Champagne was as
speedy as ever! We try to get to Italy every other year or so and you
are correct....there are two types of drivers in Italy...very slow or
very fast. While I have traveled extensively in France, this is my
first trip to the Nice area.
