I did a trip to the German Grand Prix last year via the Tunnel.

1) High viz for all occupants in the car, I know the rule is(or Was) driver only but we put them in the door pockets to be safe.

2) Car has the EU plates with the GB Tag so no need for a GB sticker

3) Set Lights to RH Operation

3) There so much discussion on the Breathalyzers I got 2 to be safe but ensure they're NF marked

4) Speed Camera warnings disappear IIRC in France (Illegal) but worth checking they are switched off

5) Watch your speed like a hawk around the ports, the police are very hot on relieving tourists of their Euros


Roads are fab, we didn't use the toll routes but the slightly increased limit over the UK, less traffic & seemingly better road sense made the miles fly by. Services on the whole are much better as well
