Lons-le-Saunier → Saint-Étienne trip in a license-free car

The trip between Lons-le-Saunier (Bourgogne-Franche-Comté) and Saint-Étienne (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes) is about 218 km. In a license-free car, as on a 50cc scooter or moped, on suitable roads (secondary and main roads away from expressways), allow roughly 5h 9min of travel at 45 km/h.

This trip links the Jura area (39) to the Loire area (42). The roads between these two towns mostly follow secondary and main roads, well suited to driving a license-free car. Expressways and motorways, which are off-limits to license-free cars, are automatically left out of the route.

Saint-Étienne has a Low Emission Zone (LEZ), which makes electric license-free cars even more useful for driving around without restrictions.

Heads up: standard GPS apps like Waze or Google Maps are not suited to license-free cars. They can send you onto expressways, motorways or ring roads that are banned for light quadricycles, putting your safety at risk. A dedicated GPS like TacTac filters out these roads automatically and only offers routes that match your vehicle.
