Dangerous Street in Japan -- 危ない出来町通り

This street (Dekimachi-dori), located in Nagoya, is unique, in that it has bus stops in the middle of the lanes of traffic. The right-most lane is for buses and non-turning traffic. The lane to the left of that is the right turning lane.

@JapanScene are the colored sections of the road some kind of "Highway"?

@BlaffingDream The colored sections are the bus lanes.

All the traffic lights blink like that? That seems kinda dangerous if you happened to glance up at the light when its not on.

@Standard420247 they don't actually blink. That just how it comes out in the camera sometimes

They tried this kind of bus stop setup in Montreal, QC, Canada(on Pie-IX street) and it failed. Too many accidents. I should post a video response some day. You can always check Google streetview.

My house is situated on this street.

This bus lanes are reserved for buses during rush hour. Other times it is bus priority.

Have been paved in a different color line color line up and down the bus lanes are to prevent a reverse run of the race who are not familiar.
