Fill out the 'constat amiable d'accident' (amicable accident report) with the other party. Do not admit fault.

Driving in Carcassonne: Essential Tips

Everything U.S. travelers need to know about renting a car and exploring southern France by road

Do I need an International Driving Permit (IDP) in France, or is my U.S. license enough?
Yes, you need an IDP. France legally requires foreign drivers to carry an IDP alongside their U.S. license—rental agencies will ask for it, and police can fine you up to €135 for not having one. Get your IDP from AAA before your trip for about $20; no test required, just bring a passport photo. Don't risk it—without an IDP, your rental insurance may also be voided.
How do French toll roads work, and should I get an electronic tag?
French autoroutes (marked 'A') are toll roads—expect €15-25 from Toulouse to Carcassonne. Tolls accept credit cards (Visa/Mastercard with chip) or cash at manned booths. The télépéage electronic tag (€2/month + usage) isn't worth it for short trips unless you're driving extensively. Just use 'CB' (carte bancaire) lanes—look for the credit card icon, insert your card, and go.
Where can I park when visiting Carcassonne's medieval Cité?
Don't try driving into the fortified Cité—streets are narrow and restricted. Use Parking du Château (€2.40/hour, €14/day) right outside the walls, or the free P+R lot at Porte d'Aude with a 10-minute walk. In summer, arrive before 10 AM or after 6 PM to find spots. Within the Bastide Saint-Louis (lower town), street parking is €1-2/hour; pay at nearby machines.
What's the 'priority to the right' rule, and will it confuse me?
In France, vehicles coming from your right generally have priority unless otherwise marked—even on smaller streets. At unmarked intersections, slow down and watch right. However, most main roads have yellow 'priorité' signs, and roundabouts always give priority to cars already inside. Americans adapt quickly—just stay alert at rural intersections where this rule still applies.
I'm 23—can I rent a car without paying extra fees?
Most rental companies in France require drivers to be at least 21 and hold a license for 1+ years. At 23, expect a 'young driver surcharge' of €20-35/day. Some premium car categories (luxury, SUVs) require age 25+. At 21-22, your vehicle choices are limited to economy/compact classes. Budget for the extra fee, or add an older driver as the primary renter.
Is the 'full-to-full' fuel policy standard in France?
Yes, and stick with it. Rental companies offer prepaid fuel options that seem convenient but cost 20-30% more than filling up yourself. Gas stations near Carcassonne airport charge premium prices; instead, stop at a supermarket station (Carrefour, Intermarché) in town for €0.20-0.30 less per liter. Save your receipt as proof—the last fill-up photo helps if disputes arise.
