In 2018, the government decided to lower the maximum speed from 90 km/h to 80 km/h on departmental roads. The decision, welcomed by the road safety associations, had provoked an outcry throughout the country. Since then, more than 50 departments have gone back. In Morbihan, for example, almost one in ten roads should go back to 90 km/h. The department is responsible for the cost of the operation, which amounts to 180,000 euros. (Transports).
