Driver's license


You can take a license out of 18 years old in Japan. You should enter the driving school to take the license and must pass some tests.
In Japan, there are green, blue and gold driver’s licenses. Green driver’s license is for a beginner. After first license update, driver’s license change to blue. Blue is general driver’s license. If you do no violation without an accident until next license update, you get a gold driver’s license. It is the proof of the good driver, and effective for five years. When you caused an accident and violation with the gold driver’s license, you return to a blue driver’s license by the next license update.
