2. NEXCO EAST Hokkaido Regional Head Office Summer Traffic Safety Priority Points

1. Don't forget to check before departure!
   In the summer, when there are many opportunities to drive long distances for leisure, many cars break down on Expressway Most of the causes are damage to tires and running out of fuel, which can be prevented by basic inspections.
   ​Don't forget to check fuel, tire pressure, oil and cooling water, especially before departure. If you have to stop on the Expressway, use the hazard lights, smoke bombs, and triangular stop plates to signal the following vehicle and report from a safe place.

   
   
2. Let's be careful about driving!
   On June 30, last year, the Road Traffic Act amendment created a crime of obstructive driving (so-called "road rage crime"), and for violations such as "non-maintaining distance between vehicles", a maximum of three years' imprisonment will be imposed. It was become a thing.
   Please drive with compassion and concession. In the unlikely event that you are disturbed, stop at a safe place and do not hesitate to call 110.
3. Make sure you wear seat belts and child seats properly in all seats!
   Expressway is about 9 times that of wearers (according to the National Police Agency)!
   ​To protect your loved ones and your precious lives, be sure to fasten your seat belts and child seats not only in the driver's seat and passenger seat, but also in all seats including the rear seats.
