Eat at the Source NORM Finish konbini food at the store bench or vending alcove and bin it there. Walking-eating (arukigui) litters and annoys.
Smoke Only in Booths STATUTORY Street smoking bans cover central wards with on-the-spot fines around ¥2,000 and up. Glass booths are marked on maps.
Honor Signals and Queues NORM Red pedestrian lights hold even with no cars coming; bus and taxi lines form and hold. Join the end.
Bikes: Registered, Left, Locked PRACTICAL Ride on the left roadway edge, register against theft (bohan toroku), and lock twice — mamachari vanish too.
