More racist journalism, they have different rules on motorways in France

Stuart Fielding

We have to read up about their rules when driving in France they should have read up about ours. I don’t think there is anything racist about it

Claire Tsimboykas

The French do have special areas where you can leave the motorway and BBQ. Maybe they thought an emergency lane was the same! Vive la France!

Kath Rawcliffe

Maybe they were enjoying the scenery and quietness there The M6 is lovely for a bit of peace and quiet
