A woman in Brittany was slapped with a €35 ($45) fine after police spotted her driving her car wearing a full-face veil.
The woman, who was visiting family in the north-west coastal town of Saint-Brieuc, was wearing the face-covering niqab, reported daily newspaper 20 Minutes.
Police stopped the woman who "seemed hesitant in her driving," said local police spokesman Laurent Dufour.
