Rennes → Saint-Malo trip in a license-free car

The trip between Rennes (Bretagne) and Saint-Malo (Bretagne) is about 78 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 1h 52min of travel at 45 km/h.

This trip stays within the Ille-et-Vilaine area (35). 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.

Rennes 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.
