The driver is responsible for checking if they will be travelling in one of these areas and equipping their car accordingly. You can find out which areas are affected by this law on the French Government website at https://www.securite-routiere.gouv.fr/chacun-son-mode-de-deplacement/dangers-de-la-route-en-voiture/equipement-de-la-voiture/nouveaux.
