It all starts the night of 25 January 2014. Around 15 pm 0, police gave him the order to stop his vehicle rue Charles, near the cinema in Amiens. She runs. “They asked me for my license, checked my insurance, etc. “Said the law student. Then “they asked me if I had my yellow vest. I look in the glove box, everywhere, I cannot find. One of the two policemen told me he might be in the trunk. I go out and checked, one of them illuminating the chest with his torch. “No yellow vest trace. The young woman is verbalized for this absence, and that of the security triangle, 90 euro fine.

 

The fine comes. She disputes the extent that she realized meanwhile that the triangle was good in the car, stored in a place provided for this purpose in the trunk. The protest is denied, the fine increases to 112 Euros. She rules.
