WHATS THE SPEED LIMIT IN BUILT-UP AREAS IN FRANCE?
The maximum speed limit is generally 50kph through French villages and towns unless signs show a maximum speed to the contrary which is very often 40kph or just 30kph in small villages. Remember: The speed limit signs are NOT in miles-per-hour but in kilometres-per-hour. Most, if not all modern cars are equipped with a speedometer indicating kilometres-per-hour, so get used to looking at it, thinking in kilometres-per-hour and regularly checking your speed.
