I've never bothered with deflectors in the 20 yrs I've been biking in Europe. (I did with the car though).
Just don't use full beam...
In France, it's a legal requirement to have dipped beams on during the day.
You must carry your license , insurance and registration documents with you.
It's also recommended to take spare bulbs and fuses.....hmmmmm must go get some for the trip tomorrow....thanks for reminding me

In France it is compulsory to smoke as much as possible.
It is also illegal to be a vegetarian - if you dare to ask for a vegetarian option they laughingly supply you with a giant pasta bowl of shredded lettuce and dry bread*
You can be locked up until you pay an on the spot fine - you can also be stripped of your clothing and left in your boxers - with Gendarme blowing kisses at ya thru the hatch.... watch out for toll roads - they time you on the tickets.
* Note We discovered that one way to dispose of dry bread was to tape it to one's knees with gaffer tape and use as sliders.... toasts quite well like that.
French track day marshalls are great - they take their kids with them & have a family picnic in the middle of the track - running a book on which zttooopeeed ingleesh is going to crash & burn?
2 days to go -
can't wait

Well how the @$#% are you supposed to pay it if you're locked up? Shout over the wall asking people to throw coins in? Stupid arses...
Pigeon,
In the instance of my friend - they let him go when he left them with his driving licence and passport.... the stupid fool didn't have enough money with him, or in his account to pay the fine and everyone on the trackday had a whip-round to bail him out....
However saying that, have some great stories - including one chap who got a lift in a refrigerated truck after running out of fuel - being cheered for wheelies along a sea front by pensioners & helped out at the automated toll booths that only accept French cards... they 'aint all bad those Froggies!
