Many French municipalities install signs prohibiting motorhome parking, but these signs often have no legal basis. Under the French Highway Code, a motorhome is classified as a light vehicle, and municipalities cannot discriminate against it. The pictogram of a crossed-out motorhome is not recognized in official road signage regulations. If fined, drivers can contest the ticket by citing the sign's illegality and seek assistance from organizations like CLC or FFCC.
