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.

When they were living here under their EU rights, they didn't need to do any of that stuff, so you cannot blame them for not doing so. In fact the French were refusing applications after the brexit vote but before actual Brexit because their British licences were still valid. And then they wonder why they got overwhelmed afterwards! It's a shambles by a typically inept French bureaucracy and an incompetent British government.

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...
