I've visited the France Italy border near Menton fairly regularly over many years. Pre EU there were border controls then with the 'border free europe' they disappear completely for a while. Now they are back in a partial way because there were loads of African and similar illegal immigrants and none of the countries really want them so the French set up controls to try to stop them crossing from Italy.
