How a CAR GUY explores TOKYO!

[@zzr1985]

As a fellow Aussie obsessed with japan. I've also been to autobacs shinnome and daikoku pa. But I went on a tour. I had to ask. What's driving like? My third trip to Japan will be this year and I really should do some driving this time. Is daikoku and autobacs easy to drive to?

I'd be keen to make a video explaining g this to everyone but I'll give you the rundown for sure 😄 Driving: renting a car from Omoshiro, Toyota or Nissan "rent a car" is straight forward and easy. As long as you have a driving permit from your state (for Vic RACV does it) and your passport + drivers license, youre set! Experience: if you drive on the roads in Australia, it is very similar to Japan. Road signs are fairly straight forward, stop signs are Triangles that are red, parking signs are in circles and there is a Wikipedia page that explains them in English. The drivers are way more courteous over there and will be more aware of surrounding cars. (I have rarely been cut off or denied a lane change like we get all the time in Melbourne) Speeding is commonplace, as long as you're doing under 115 in an 80, cameras and police won't bat an eye, so follow the flow of traffic and stick to what people are doing. I hope this helps you! I'm super stoked to hear you're giving driving a go!
