Traffic violations


I’m going to talk about violations in Japan. When you drive a car, you should follow many traffic rules. If you violate these traffic rules, you have to pay a fine or be arrested.

Here I introduce about Speeding. You can see the speed limit from the number written on a road or road traffic sign. Drivers must follow these speed limits.

Please look at this figure. This shows how much speeder has to pay as a fine. In case of a standard car, speeder has to pay at least 9 thousands yen. If worst comes to worst, a speeder has to pay 35 thousands yen. It is big economic damage for you. Patrol cars are not always running and checking the speed, but sometimes speed cameras are put on a major road instead of police officers. Therefore you should take care for the speed every time you drive.
