Driving to france at 17

My family is driving down to france next year and i’m planning to have my driving license and also go down with them. Only issue being if i google can a 17 year old drive to france it says no, but i’ve also found information saying they’ve changed there legal driving age to 17 meaning i should be able to right? Since the reason it’s saying no is the legal driving age is 18. Can i have some help as i’m very confused and not sure what information to believe
