Default OT calling any French residents

Sorry about the OT posting, but I know a few French residents post here
and I would like a little information.
The EU have brought in another stupid regulation that buses traveling
over 30 miles must stop at 30 miles, remove all passengers then can
reload and resume their journey. One very negative effect of this is
that in Wales hitherto community buses that travel over 30 miles have
shortened their journeys by using main roads and bypasses, as a result a
number of small communities no longer have a bus service.
Does this rule applied in France?


First I've heard about it. Sounds more like a posting for
1st of April to me :-)

No its true and causing problems in Cornwall too, people are having to
buy three separate tickets for one jurney and get off the bus, they then
get straight back on with the same driver and continue - daft
