New On July 1St, Scooters Too Motorcycles Made Earlier The Yr 2000 Volition Non Live On Allowed Inwards The Big French Metropolis Restricted Zones

The FFMC requested  "the costless motility of motorized two-wheeled vehicles inwards restricted areas" .

 As of July 1, the Crit'Air sticker becomes mandatory, this agency that: (not all of these brand feel to me, perhaps it's due to Google translate?)

- the non-presentation of the Crit'Air sticker on vehicles declared authorized to teach into restricted areas (ZCR) volition found an crime punishable past times a € 68 offense.
- Vehicles alongside a appointment of kickoff free prior to May 31, 2000 for two-wheelers (2WD) in addition to 1997 for automobiles, are definitely classified every bit prohibitions of remain inwards large cities which volition define a ZCR.

The French Federation of angry motorcyclists (FFMC) challenges this exclusion, peculiarly regarding 2WD because:

None of them diesel,
They fluidify the traffic of vehicles inwards agglomeration,
Their low-cal weight does non harm the roads,
Their pocket-size footprint is an property inwards traffic in addition to parking,
"A 2WD (whatever its age), it is non a motorbike to a greater extent than inwards traffic, it is a automobile less inwards traffic or a user less inwards world carry heavily saturated at tiptop hours," Stresses the FFMC. In other words, the motorbike is non a pollution, it is business office of the solution alongside regard to pollution problems related to motor vehicle traffic in addition to congestion."

The FFMC has asked for a hearing to the Minister of Ecology, Nicolas Hulot, to enquire him to "reconsider the prohibition of motorbike traffic inwards the machinery of the ZCR that nosotros reckon inappropriate, unjust in addition to antisocial ," she explains. 
"we protestation against the upcoming restriction inwards built-up areas, prohibiting the purpose of our onetime motorcycles in addition to scooters on the grounds that their engines create non comply to the well-nigh severe standards currently inwards forcefulness on emissions. We create non dispute that our two-wheeled vehicles emit harmful gases (like all motorized vehicles), but nosotros reckon that this pollution is much less than disposing of our vehicles in addition to replacing them alongside novel ones."

"In Paris, Lyon or Marseille, what volition the owners of bikers create later on July 1st? Will they resume their modern automobile in addition to hence contribute to a greater extent than to traffic congestion, in addition to pollution? Will they piece of occupation into debt to teach a novel vehicle whose industry results inwards to a greater extent than global pollution than what their onetime bikes are generating local pollution? Will furnish to world carry already saturated at tiptop hours? Can the eradication of these onetime two-wheeled vehicles for ideological ends in addition to dogmatic principles assistance to cut down air pollution inwards the city? Come on!"
