Hendaye, in 64, evolves in a region where driving combines Bordeaux vineyards, Atlantic beaches and Limousin plateaus. Connections rely on the A63 along the coast, the A10 to Paris and the toll-free A20 towards Limoges and central France. Spain proximity via the A63 generates permanent international truck traffic, especially on the Bayonne-border section. In a small town like Hendaye, 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.
