Westerly winds on the Artois and Picardy plateaus regularly exceed 80 km/h, pushing light vehicles sideways on exposed bridges and viaducts. In a small town like Compiègne, driving alternates between town centre, residential zones and access to departmental axes. Entry roundabouts and 30 km/h zones are the main points of attention.
