Heads up for the overweights!!!
The gendarmerie are out in force on the N10 just north of Angoulleme. They are carrying out weight checks on both the north and south bound carriageways. We were stopped and were OK. The nice Gendarme did comment that he was surprised that our Autotrail was not over weight, as he stated they were normally a 'good bet'. I explained that we had been upgraded via SVTech and were OK. They were only interested in gross weights.
So all those travelling down or back from hols with full tanks of water - BEWARE
