In Japan, we can get driver’s license over 18 years old, but we can get only a motorized two-wheeled vehicle license over 16-years old. If we want to get that license, we must enter a driving school to study driving lure and law. Usually, we spend four or five months to graduate this school, but people who have much free time can graduate it only one month. However, we must graduate it within one year. In case of the motorized two-wheeled vehicle license, we do not need to spend such a long time. It takes only one day. We take an exam and if we pass it, we have a lecture how to ride a motorized two-wheeled vehicle after that, we can get license.
Another peculiarity of Japanese driving rule is speed limit. In Japanese load, there are speed limits in normal roads and highways. In normal road, they are about 60km per an hour and in highway, about 80 to 90km per an hour. However, some crazy drivers do not keep this rule. If the police find them, they will be caught and they have to pay a fine.
I think Japanese driver and load is safer than New Zealand because we have to spend time more than New Zealand driver and almost of Japanese driver keep the rule.
Hi Yuta,
ReplyDeleteIs it true that Japanese people have to update their vehicles after 5 years? I remember seeing very updated models in Japan. What are the rules about older cars?
In terms of feedback, check your last sentence:
All Japanses drivers keep to the rules.
Almost all Japanese drivers...
Nearly all Japanese drivers...
Also check the feedback that I gave to Yi - you have the same issue in your second line.
After reading this, I now feel like some Japanese food. :(
