Enjoying Japan from the road is a way to get more than you may have expected out of your vacation. Renting a car is no more difficult than anywhere else, but there is more you have to think about. This book tells you what you have to think about, and the things specific to Japan you have to look at.

In Japan you have to literally read the road as well as the road signs, and at the same time you need to understand how your fellow drivers will behave. It is not difficult to drive in Japan - but you have to decipher the road signs and understand the traffic situation, stressing your multitasking abilities.

The book includes chapters about the Japanese road signs, the rules of the road in Japan, driving with children, and driving with special needs. There are chapters about how to handle the Japanese weather and how to drive during earthquakes and tsunamis.

The book covers driving in all seasons, and all parts of Japan, from Hokkaido to Okinawa. There are separate chapters about how to drive in Tokyo, and how to drive on the Japanese expressways.

The author has taken all his experiences from the US and Europe, and tells how the driving situation compares between the different countries. The way you need to drive in Japan is full of special rules, exceptions, and exceptions from the exceptions. But do not worry, this book covers it.
