If the British people in question have lived in France for a year or so, that's clearly shitty on behalf of the French. If, like here, there's a shitload of Brits who couldn't be bothered and have lived in Europe for ages... well... bad luck. Given loads of countries have that reciprocal agreement, you'd assume the British government/EU could have done a deal.
Drink driving isn't an issue here apparently. That said there are an awful lot of crashes involving only one car (ending up in fields, rivers, forests, front gardens etc) late night/early morning.
Still with the standard of driving here it must be easy to pass a test. Any speed you like, both sides of the road, drunk...
