The Police Department & Transportation Bureau's year -end and New Year holidays "Runaway Captures" forced adhesive unauthorized modified cars are quite tough!

Police officers and inspectors surround the vehicle around the vehicle and start the inspection all at once.The feeling of pressure that the driver feels is considerable (Minami Nakajima).

　The runaway warning during the year -end and New Year holidays was implemented in Tokyo. The "Measures for Runaway Tribe" implemented by the Metropolitan Police Department are intended to arrest runaway acts and prevent driving. During the four days from December 31, 2021 to January 3, 2012, a total of 455 people and about 213 vehicles were cautious. [Muffler is too terrible ...] Inspired by a remodeled car and a crackdown repo photo, the Metropolitan Expressway C1 Metropolitan Corporate Ring Line Inside the Metropolitan Land Line, near the Kyobashi toll, the crackdown focusing on fraudulent remodeling, but New Year's Eve 23:00. It was held late at night until 2:00 on the New Year's Day. It is always implemented during the year -end and New Year holidays because many runaway vehicles have made fraudulent modifications. This is a joint implementation between the Metropolitan Police Department Expressway Transport Police Corps and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Kanto Transportation Bureau, and a large number of people involved are set. The guide from the main line to the inspection site reminds me of a pit stop on the circuit. It is not a laughing story, but that it is so organized to crack down. The target vehicle is kept down to the speed that can be safely stopped at the top of the police car at the top, and is guided by police officers from the main line to the branch lines narrowed by lane regulation. For the time being, the vehicle that is fastened to the parking lot will be verified and confirmed a license, and then enter the laboratory in another location. In the race, the mechanic surrounds the vehicle in the pit and starts to change tires, but the situation of this crackdown is almost the same. In addition to police officers, staff from the transportation bureau with specialized in vehicle inspection surrounding, exhaust gas, noise tests, and whether tires are not protruding from the tire house, and whether the minimum ground height is secured. increase. Drivers and cars are surrounded by numerous uniform staff you have never seen.

Almost vehicle inspection!?

　The lace pit work is a game with time, and it will return to the main line in no time, but it is not the case with crackdowns. In particular, the time -consuming is exhaust gas tests and noise tests, and the engine speed is measured for a certain period of time for a different standard for each model. For this reason, the Transportation Bureau brings out the exhaust gas measuring instruments and noise measuring instruments used in street inspections. It is more than 10 minutes per car because some of the checks performed in the vehicle inspection are performed. The more points of poor maintenance, the longer the time will be. In this crackdown, there were fewer traffic vehicles than last time, which was requested to go out, and there were not many target vehicles. Therefore, the waiting time for the inspection was low and it was relatively peaceful. In recent years, the number of runaway in groups has decreased dramatically, so it has become less tense. The crackdown at the Metropolitan Expressway was four maintenance orders, which legally developed muffler deficiencies on the four -wheeled stand. There was no motorcycle. Similar crackdowns centered on fraudulent modifications were held from 23:00 on December 29, 2021 to 4:00 on the Chuo -do Hachioji Main Line Tollgates (Hachioji, Tokyo). There are 5 maintenance orders for one four -wheeled vehicle and four motorcycles. In addition to removing mufflers and back mirrors, it was pointed out that the "bamboo spear muffler" and the rear wing that came out of the car frame.
