The minimum age for driving a car in France is 18 years old.  If you wish to drive in France you must have a valid driving licence, insurance and vehicle documents.  If you are driving a vehicle that does not belong to you then written permission from the registered owner may also be requested.
 
You should take particular care when driving in France as driving regulations and customs are different from those in the UK.  Roads in France, particularly motorways, are of an excellent standard but speed limits are higher than in the UK and the accident rate is higher.

The French police strictly apply speeding restrictions and if you exceed speed limits you will face heavy on-the-spot fines. In addition radar detectors are illegal in France - if you are caught with such equipment in your vehicle, you are liable to a fine, confiscation of the device and the vehicle.
 
Almost all roads in Corsica are mountainous and narrow, with numerous bends.  You should be extra vigilant and beware of wandering animals.  The majority of road accidents occur during the tourist season.
