I got confused by the statement " got all the requirements except the breathalyser". I mean it's the norm for us all when planning a car trip, right?
Wallet - check
Car keys - check
Luggage - check
Dogs (including part dogs) - check
Breathalyser - check.
WTF?

Bottle of Johnny Walker Red or Spanish equivalent - check


Apparently the French require breathalyzers in the car due to the drunken carnage on their roads. I don't think the dogs are required to test though.

Breathalysers
1 March 2012 - the French government confirmed that from 1 July 2012 drivers of all motor vehicles and motorcycles (excluding mopeds) must carry a breathalyser. The regulation will be enforced from 1 November 2012 and anyone stopped after that date who fails to produce a breathalyser when requested will receive an on the spot fine of €11.
