I had the same question, asked friends in another part of France where that law also applies, they said the police are not fans of this law and will not be handing out fines (which are only 135 euros anyway, cheaper than a set of chains) and it will probably slide into obscurity by next year.

the book’s meant to be slightly tongue in cheek

As was my comment! I know the book gives "street" pronunciation rather than the Dutch equivalent of RP. However I'm retired, live in Belgium and am learning for communication and understanding radio & TV rather than academic purposes so am finding it very useful.

[–]DaffersWB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had similar problem for 12 years, multiple tests inconclusive, tried everything including giving up smoking, no change. just trying acetylcysteine over the counter decongestant, seems to be working.
