cycling in tokyo is easy imo but how are the rules strict? i always cycled to work and thought people treated cycling like mechanical walking, and just went wherever with no regard for road rules

harperdc posted:The police are starting to crack down on things like “riding against traffic” and “riding fast on the sidewalk, whether it’s more than PR bluster or not we’ll see. And I know a few places (certainly Kanagawa prefecture) are requiring cyclists to have cycling insurance in case said riding on the sidewalk leads to injury or worse.

MJP posted:I guess if you take it as "thanks for at least trying" it's not as bad as "oh you sweet gaijin dumbass, look at how inferior you are to our ancient culture" or otherwise. I'm awful at languages and just getting Duolingo in has been something of a miracle - at least I have a shot at reading what something is before whipping out Google Translate and/or a lifetime of subbed anime, which is absolutely linguistically correct, of course nobody thinks any of this when they say that

my itinerary on my first visit was like: 2 weeks tokyo, do whatever 1 week kansai, do whatever 1 week kyushu, do whatever 1 week okinawa, do whatever 1 week hokkaido, do whatever this worked out well in the end. i'd hate to have my itinerary be so granular and lacking in free time to encounter the unexpected but i guess it's a matter of preference
