Coach - Attention Angle Mort Sticker

*Magentic* Pair of 

New legislation in France from 1 January 2021 requires all vehicles over 3.5T to display warning stickers to indicate the position of blind spots to other road users.

The stickers must use the official French-government design and there are strict rules about the stickers’ size and position.

The stickers required for London’s Direct Vision Standard (DVS) are different, and not acceptable in France, although they can remain on the vehicle. 

Non-compliance will result in a 4th class penalty fine (€135) that can be decreased or increased, associated with a loss of 1 to 6 points on the driving licence.

Vehicles already fitted with side cameras are not exempt.
All vehicles and trailers must have signs that must be between 0.9m-1.5m above ground level fitted:

• On the rear, on the right-hand side (French kerbside)
• On each side (left and right) between 0m-1m of the front, excluding glass surfaces
• On trailers, each side (left and right) between 0m-1m behind the kingpin (for semi-trailers) or the front body of other trailers.

Signs must “visible in all circumstances” and “cannot obstruct the the vehicle’s regulatory plates and inscriptions, various lights/signalling devices as well as the field of vision of the driver.

For vehicles and trailers where it is technically impossible to comply with the height requirement, signs must be “as close as possible” to 0.9m-1.5m and no more than 2.1m from ground level.
