If you take the wheel on this Monday, August 22, traffic should be heavy, but without too many traffic jams. Be careful all the same, since the whole country is classified orange in the direction of returns. In Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, Bison smart also sees orange in the direction of departures.
