Sunday 29 May, when traffic was expectedly to be heavy in Dordogne, especially due to the Ascension weekend returns, the Gendarmerie Company of Nontron conducted jointly with the Departmental Road Safety Squadron - EDSR, an "offensive road check operation" between Thiviers et Lanouaille, between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m.

22 gendarmes were mobilized in the field, most of them in civilian clothing, "to ensure the effectiveness of our system", explained Damien Courton, commander of the Perigord Vert gendarmerie Company.

The military noted 13 traffic offenses in the race results: driving while under the influence of drugs as a repeat, driving while impaired as a repeat, driving despite having lost your license, and driving without insurance.

Criminal offenders will be summoned to the Perigueux criminal court.
