French requirements for breathalysers in cars

score:5

Accepted answer

As mentioned in this official webpage, the list of mandatory accessory in a car in France is :

  • a reflecting jacket
  • a security triangle
  • a breathalyser

Nevertheless, it is also explicitly mentioned that the lack of a breathalyser isn't submitted to a penalty. You are therefore actually not required to have one in your car.

You can be submitted to an alcohol test on the police's own breathalyser, or to a blood analysis.

Don't drink and drive !
