• Thanks. I just checked. Fire extinguishers are not mandatory:

    It is recommended that you carry a first aid kit and fire extinguisher in your vehicle, as, although it is not legally required, France’s ‘Good Samaritan’ Law calls for you to provide assistance if you come across an accident or fire. If you are not properly equipped to deal with this, you can face a fine.

    I didn't take any of this stuff when I drove to Chamonix last year :)

    The beam deflectors is to regulate the difference of lights between right hand drive and left wheel drive cars (for my personal information)?

    Yes - they're little stickers that go on the lenses of your headlights, as ours are otherwise set up to point directly into oncoming traffic. Then they leave sticky residue on your lights that takes a lot of scrubbing to remove when you get back .

  • that is what I meant by "I do not know many people that carry them at all time", after a bit of thought I know probably at max two persons that carry a fire extinguisher.
    And my dad was the only person I know that had a first aid kit in a car... because it was in it when he purchased it ha ha ha

    I've got a small extinguisher and a first aid kit in both my cars, does this get me some Dad points?
