April 10 is the Traffic Accident Elimination Day and April 6 to 15 is the Spring National Traffic Safety Campaign week. The National Traffic Safety Campaign slogan this year is “Drive with care in the city and on the road.” There were 1,261 traffic accidents in the year 2017, an increase of 91 accidents from the year 2016. Please obey traffic rules and manners to reduce traffic accidents.
a) Pedal along the carriageway. Pedal on sidewalks only in exceptional circumstances.
b) Ride on the left side of the road.
c) Pedestrians always have the priority on sidewalks. Cyclists must go slowly and take the carriageway side.
d) Following safety rules:
Riding a bicycle while drinking alcohol, riding with a passenger, and cycling in parallel are forbidden. Turn on the bicycle’s front light at night.
Obey traffic light signals, stop and confirm the safety in all directions before entering the intersections.
There are many hills in Minato City. When descending a hill, you will accelerate much more than riding on a flat road. Please reduce speed adequately and confirm safety when descending a hill. It is very dangerous when cyclists collide with pedestrians by not slowing down on the road, and not looking out carefully for the pedestrians. These actions could lead to a serious accident. The perpetrator may be asked to compensate for the harm he/she has caused to the victim or the injured.
The reasonably-priced Personal Traffic Accidental Insurance and Bike Liability Insurance Plan are available for Minato City residents. The insurance covers liability compensation for cases of inflicted injury or damage to another person or his/her property as a result of bicycle-related accidents. The maximum compensation amount of Bike Liability Insurance Plan is ¥100 million. Enrolling in this insurance plan is recommended just in case an accident occurs. For more information, please visit the Minato City Web.
