Where can a motorcycle drive in France?

Two-wheelers, tricycles and quadricycles. They have their own classification table — there is no Crit'Air 5 for them at all.

7 of the 13 French cities that record a rule for a motorcycle set a Crit'Air floor; 6 record the class but require no sticker.

Rules in force on 1 August 2026, read from each authority's own published zone rather than applied from the car table.
