Driving around Brest- Rules of the Road

France’s metro system and public transport are efficient and cheap, but arguably, the best way to get around is by car. Brest’s road regulations mirror much of the rest of France, in that you need to acquire a Crit’Air sticker for your vehicle to show how many emissions your vehicle produces. As France has many low-emission zones, you’ll need to ensure you choose the correct sticker. You may also be denied entry to certain low-emission zones if your vehicle produces too many emissions.

Here are things to consider before hiring a vehicle at Brest Airport and driving around Brest, and how to ensure that you and your vehicle comply with the regulations of the road:
