Wow!
Crazy people abound everywhere. don't they?
Keep your distance, I'd advise.
Kid on your lap while driving would land you in serious trouble here in New York. I consider it endangering the welfare of a child.
Just another example of how bad influences create bad habits which generate bad results~
I had a Japanese driver cut me off on the highway in Japan, almost caused an accident.
Maybe Japanese tv needs to have tragedies on tv where kids are injured in cars to raise awareness
The first car that had crossed the white line at the traffic light 'T' intersection but didn't have time to complete his turn before the lights changed – I'd say he/she made the wise decision to stop where he was rather than risk continuing through the intersection on what looks like a national highway.
The two motorcycles both have illegal number plates. The plates are set at an angle where the riders believe they can't be accurately captured by CCTV and/or traffic cameras therefore allowing them to ride at greater speed. You also see it sometimes on cars. Both sets of drivers share one thing in common – they're all dickheads.
Woah….. that poor kid. I can't even imagine how much he would be hurt in the event that the air bags go off in a accident.
Teenage girl drivers do this all the time. They should banned !!
The best is when they start going at a red light then proceed to drive slower than the speed limit.
Some comments 1. Chinese driver's are the worst so Japan isn't so bad. 2. I don't know if having the child in the front seat is legal in Japan, but even having a child in front passenger seat is illegal in Texas. 3. The light on the motorcycles did its job you noticed the motorcycles
Would love to see driver licenses suspended, especially when kids are permitted to ride like that….
that yellow and teal symbol is the JDM logo. people who like an own Japanese domestic cars do it.
Sounds like the US and Japan are at the two extremes of the spectrum with one jailing people and taking them to the courts even for light offences such as a mild unintentional car accidents without any casualties and the other fully ignoring the drivers knowingly doing something that puts lives at risk on the roads.
I used to live in Japan in 2010-2011, scary earthquake on 03/11/2011, I never paid attention to drivers as I did not have my licence at the time yet, I only passed driving test/exam in 2017. Recently almost died in a car accident, I know nothing how it happened I was in a coma for 2 weeks and spent 2 months at one of the Hospitals. Police clearly stated they could not find anyone at fault, that policeman who was investigating in, thought I was dead, as half of my skull was broken into pieces, they though I lost my eye, and got apparently quite bad brain damaged. It's a miracle that I survived it and somehow at this moment I understand everyone, I can communicate as before the accident, I can see as the eye actually survived, though I had some issues during first 2-4 months with getting my skull, eye and brain fixed. I have got a bit more time to gather myself together and look for an employment.
so no diffrent to the rest of the world then 😛
