For those that travel to europe for holidays or Shows... the law in France is changing , as well as the usual first aid kit/day glo jacket etc from 1st of July you will need to carry (and produce if stopped) a breathalyser kit.
Extract from drivealive.com but has also been reported in some of the media
Drinking and driving: Don't do it. Over 0.05 per cent and you could face anything up to imprisonment. From July 1st 2012 it is compulsory to carry a breathalyser kit in the car. 2 per car are advised. 15 euro fines for non-compliance will be levied from November 1st 2012.
the breathalyser has to carry "NF" certification (tested by a french lab) otherwise it doesn't count and you can still be fined.
