And not only with high fines, foreigners may soon their license and even lose their vehicle in persistent misconduct in traffic.

It's the French for years an eyesore that foreigners flouting traffic laws. Therefore, they carry a 'virtual points driving license' for these drivers. Drivers get on this 'permis de conduire' twelve points, just like the French. The system is not very accommodating. Accelerate when you get caught up, can be good for a deduction of two points. A driver holding his phone in hand or belt does not have to be able to see evaporate three points. Speeding over fifty kilometer costs six points, just like aboard a radar detector.
