Do I need a breathalyser to drive in france?

It’s recommended, but no longer a legal requirement to carry a breathalyser when driving in France. Still, many drivers keep one in the car just to be on the safe side. It’s a simple way to show you’re prepared, and some models are made specifically for use in France. You can find NF-approved breathalysers at Halfords. For more info on what to carry abroad, check out our guide to Driving in Europe.

Are breathalysers accurate?

Yes, especially if you go for a reliable model. Many of the digital breathalysers at Halfords use the same kind of fuel cell sensors found in police units. They give fast, clear results, and some even tell you how long it might take before you're safe to drive. Single-use options are also accurate when used correctly — just follow the instructions closely.
