If you are familiar with this site, you may recall an arrest ... I describe mine. :-( Nothing serious, in hindsight. The offense was really not severe and could in certain circumstances raise a smile. But how to react in such circumstances, far from all, in a language you do not master.
Far bring you all the answers, I'll post an article today on the day found TF1 NEWS which is interesting.

Feel free as always to share your feelings or reactions, you are always welcome and greetings to all friends of KAUST working under the sun (lucky :-)
