Foreigners Wanting to Drive in Japan
Driving in Japan legally has afforded new challenges to foreigners from China,[url=http://duveticapiumini.olimx.com/][b]Duvetica piumini[/b][/url], Brazil and also the Usa. Released in November 2002 and updated in February 2003, Traffic Act Article 107-2,[url=http://woolrichoutletde.albirank.net/][b]Woolrich Deutschland Outlet[/b][/url], has begun to produce many problems for foreigners.
Until June 2002,[url=http://billigmonclerjackenkaufen.olimx.com/][b]Billig Moncler Jacken Günstig[/b][/url], Foreigners driving in Japan (who held a legitimate drivers license using their home country) could make an application for a global driving permit (IDP) and drive in Japan permanently. Ever since then however,[url=http://woolrichparkaschweiz.albirank.net/][b]cheap woolrich winter coats woolen mills[/b][/url], IDPs are just valid for just one year. If your foreigner stays in Japan for more than twelve months and decides to reapply to have an IDP, they'd need to leave Japan not less than 90 days to ensure that the IDP to be legal upon their return.
Those visiting Japan for a small amount of time, of course IDPs would be the approach to take. They are quite cheap (around $10-20). Beware however there are lots of sites on the internet that offer IDPs for many hundred dollars. They are scam sites and are to be avoided no matter what.
Quite a few countries have a much easier time in receiving a valid Japanese drivers license in comparison to the Usa. For time to see why as well as the requirements Japan is requesting to be able to overturn this new law you may perfectly cry, or laugh. If you don't wish to take time to browse the reasons and requirements; in short,[url=http://billigmonclerjackenkaufen.olimx.com/][b]Billig Moncler Jacken[/b][/url], it's a better idea to try and take the actual Japanese test of driving ability instead of waiting for this law to be overturned.
Let us rewind to an actual experience of mine.
Blissfully unaware that my IDP was considered invalid, (I used to be living in Japan for 3 years at the time) I parked for some minutes inside a no parking zone (I drive a 50cc scooter,[url=http://monclerjackenonlinech.albirank.net/][b]http://monclerjackenonlinech.albirank.net/[/b][/url], for its sheer convenience). BIG MISTAKE. I return to find I have a parking ticket. "Oh darn,[url=http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/][b]Duvetica Jackets UK Outlet[/b][/url], I have a parking ticket. Well i guess, I may too go pay the small fine and bite the bullet on this one". I take my scooter to a police station and demonstrate to them my passport and IDP. After too many problems in communication it turns out that I cannot legally drive and that i have to go to the city's main police office a few days later so they can have a translator explain to me exactly what needs to be done.
I go back home to find out why they said I can't drive in Japan, and hop on the web to complete some investigation. Following a short time I arrived at find out that I can be fined as much as 300,000 yen (about $2,[url=http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/][b]Nike Soccer Shoes online[/b][/url],800) or spend up to a year in prison. Needless to say, my eyes were bulging out of their sockets.
A few days later, I go to this police station. I am sweating bullets and also to complicate matters they do NOT have a translator to describe the situation. Fortunately, I have a more then basic understanding of Japanese and so i am able to understand that I cannot drive legally in Japan with an IDP. Luckily this a newcomer law, that has been such a pain for foreigners, is far from being well-known. I am let off with a warning and told I cannot drive until I recieve a real Japanese drivers license.
Finding that there is only one book in Japan that's been translated into English concerning the laws from the road in Japan, I am forced to buy it. This book is all about 90% useless. There was an entire two pages about driving motorcycles/scooters in Japan. I am fortunate enough to possess some Japanese friends sit me down having a Japanese language motorcycle practice test book and ask me some questions that may be on the test I was preparing for. In under a week,[url=http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/][b]Duvetica Down Jackets[/b][/url], I was prepared to tackle this test. Approximately I figured.
Japan scooter test consists of 48 questions. 45 questions or more must be correct to be able to pass having a time limit of 30 minutes. Allow me to remind you that Japan continues to be required to have this test in English since the changing of the law so at least which was one thing during my favor. "Piece of cake, done in 15 minutes"! Or so I figured again.
Not since Shakespeare's time where double negatives considered an effective grammatical form for English! This test required for a lot of twists and turns with its EXTREMELY poor translation and it is "no" + "no" = "yes" terminology that I felt I had been likely to vomit. I took the entire Half an hour to accomplish this test with a certainty which i was going to fail. At least I acquired that part right,[url=http://giuseppezanottisneakerssale.olimx.com/][b]discount giuseppe zanotti sneakers sale with big promotion[/b][/url].
