Angles Morts stickers

Blind spot notices to warn cyclists etc.

Much discussion about this on other forums.  No clear advice or conclusions.  Some including Fun members from Europe, are suggesting that it only applies to vehicles registered in Europe not to those visiting.  

It's certainly a strange one and I wonder which language should be used .

Does this thread need moving to the Motorhome discussion section?

Some Information

 Ca va!   

It could be a good idea if it saves some lives, but since every vehicle has blind spots (as well as all the places the driver is not looking at in that particular instant) this could create the impression that a vehicle without such signs does not have a blind spot. 

You can buy the stickers on eBay

Blind Spot Stickers for France

Got mine a month ago - better safe than sorry 

OH has just found them on Amazon.fr pack of 12 for 11 euros so you may find them on Amazon.co.uk, he has just looked up the French government website as well.

The fine is *only* €90 if paid within 3 days [or within15 days if paid/sent by post]. The sub-heading in the article 'The Law is the Law' and the comment in the text that nobody is above the law is ominous.

I comment as someone who had a'warm discussion' of some 5 minutes with a French Plumber who was about to go to lunch on a topic that would have taken him 20 seconds of expert 'eyeballing' to confirm ...

And, of course, he returned from lunch exactly 5 minutes late

Discussed this episode with our neighbour, René, who replied sagely, 'But, Stefan, this is France...' Wisest explanation/advice I have heard

Just looked on 'ebay' at the stickers.Would my 'A' class " Concorde" be classed as a Bus or LKW   ??

A little more research leads me to the conclusion that this only applies to French register vehicles same as the speed stickers.  

The consensus of opinion seems to be that either type of sticker can be used on an LV.
