Some of these sections contain as many as eight departments or counties. The majority have single letters. Paris has five sets of single letters. It is necessary for a motoriste from the United Kingdom, when taking her car into France, to affix a French index-mark above her British one. This mark and number will be given her at the point of debarkation on registering the car and on passing a pleasant and easy little examination in the art of driving. This test consists in driving round a square or up and down the street for about a quarter or half a mile, turning a few corners _en route_. The French index-marks are as follows: INDEX-MARK. LOCALE. A _Alais_ (Gard, Hérault, Lozère, Ardèche) A-L Algérie B _Bordeaux_ (Départements du sud de la Garonne, Charente-Inférieure, Dordogne, Lot-et-Garonne) C _Châlon-sur-Saône_ (Côte-d’Or, Jura, Ain, Doubs, Yonne, Saône-et-Loire)
