I've never understood this "two breathalysers" bollocks
So, say you're not sure if you've had a scoop to many, but as per French law you check yourself with a breathalyser. You're safe, WIN, you drive off, the French filth pull you over, you're now in a position where you're safe to drive but are illegal because you only have one breathalyser in the car. Whereas, if you'd just risked it, you'd be legal on both counts.

I really don't think they've thought this through, K.

The electric ones are multi use aren't they?

yeah, but if you have an electric one you only need to have the one.
it's two disposable ones that the law requires. Which means, if you actually plan to use one, you need at least three. And if you don't plan to use one, what's the fucking point?

They sell them at the ferry ports and the chunnel departure lounge
About £7.50 IIRC. It's just another bit of the bureaucratic box-ticking bollocks that the french are so fond of.
