Public way go kart
In recent years, services for foreign tourists have also diversified,
Hire a costume and go-kart imitating Nintendo’s game “Mario Kart”
Things that a stroll while running the Tokyo public road seems popular.
However, this “public road rental cart” is regarded as a problem in many ways.
First of all, without your permission to Nintendo “Service name” Mari CAR “which imitated” Mario Kart ”
It was remembered that there was a dispute such as infringement of Nintendo and trademark by providing the service.
Although the dispute itself was acknowledged as “MariCAR” assertion,
but by using the super Mario’s costume without permission,
Nintendo seems to be poised to continue to disputes in the future.
Another major problem is that the Metropolitan Police Office is turning his eyes on go karting on public roads.
As you know, you can not travel on public roads freely unless it is a car that has received a predetermined registration.
“MariCAR” is by minicar registration number was Ruishi a bicycle with a prime mover (moped),
it has taken the permission can run on public roads.
A minicar can run on public roads without helmets if you have more than three wheels of mopeds and you have a regular car driver’s license.
The speed is limited to 40 to 60 km / h, but the go-kart is unexpectedly speedy,
It seems that there are many things caught by speed violation etc. because it is sometimes floating in sightseeing mood.
Let’s say that as MariCAR runs in the middle of Tokyo,
It will be censored by the Metropolitan Police Department as well as collective runaway acts.
In this way, it is also a fact that it causes problems in every direction along with its popularity,
The Metropolitan Police Department requested “MariCAR” dealer to strengthen safety measures such as recommending wearing a helmet.
The idea is interesting, but since it is a tourist who is even floating,
I would like the “MariCAR” dealer to be thoroughly instructed so that safe driving properly protects manner.
