Ok, so I'm lucky enough to be heading to the Swiss Alps for a few days with my brother-in-law at the end of June to have a play on our bikes along the big 4 passes.

My question is about this French law on reflective helmet stickers (the only EU country to adopt it) for the couple of days we will be blatting through northern France.  It seems from the text that this law is only applicable to new helmets sold in France, and not retrospective for older helmets or for those of visitors who bought their lids in their own country of residence.

Has anyone on this forum travelled through France recently and just not bothered with these stickers?
Did anyone get stopped and fined for not having them?

I know they are only cheap but they will foc-up the design of my lid, and are supposed to be unable to be removed without damaging the helmet which i really dont want to do....

Cheers.

Finally got around to joining this new and improved owners site after being a member of the original FOC-U forum under the name of Yorky.  I had a few meet ups and ride outs with Moffmeister and a few other guys, and thought it was time to get off my ass and join in again  .
Cheers,
Grant.
