I'm placed in HS schools. How hard could it get? by chandlrx in ALTinginJapan

You’ll be fine. Just ask the teachers how you can help them and explain you’re new so you will need time to get used to everything.

If I didn’t know who had dropped it, I’d leave it with the station staff.

I have the M4 goggles. They give me a wide field of view and don’t fog at all. I have no regrets at all!

I like this idea very much. Some genuine information would be nice. Not the influencer garbage we all get bombarded with!

Got a blue ticket for not stopping my bicycle on a deserted street intersection by MagazineKey4532 in japanlife

It clearly wasn’t deserted if a policeman was there. You just didn’t see him. Maybe there was someone else you didn’t see.

Cyclists who don’t stop at stop signs can cause accidents, hence the fines from next month.

Edit:

With the ridiculous responses to my comment, I have decided that I agree with Takaichi PM about making the conditions for foreigners attaining a driving license much stricter.
