I’ve seen a few of these on the road over the past week and was quite confused given their legal status. They are a good sight to see next to the monster SUVs and pickups I see all the time.

They’re everywhere in Japan, and they’re fantastic little workhorses. Great if you live in the city, but every once in a while need to haul something a bit heavy and bulky.

Absolutely not great for the freeway though, and I would NEVER take one of those on any interstate intentionally.

Glad they’re being sensible about it though, instead of just hitting them with a banhammer.
