In February, a dump truck driver in his 2s was sent to the police station on suspicion of violating the Road Traffic Act for cutting into front of a mini vehicle and obstructing driving on a road in Japan Bridge, Tokyo.
The person who was sent the documents was a 20-year-old driver who was driving a 47-ton dump truck.
According to those involved in the investigation, in late February, while driving a dump truck on Chuo-dori in Japan Bridge, Tokyo, he was suspected of obstructing driving in violation of the Road Traffic Act for suddenly changing lanes twice while driving a dump truck, cutting into front of a mini vehicle and slowing it down.
According to the man who was driving the mini car, the dump truck changed lanes without turning on the turn signal, so when he honked the horn, the driver of the dump truck angrily started driving forcefully.
In addition, when the car stopped at a red light, he got out of the car, hit the window glass and door mirror of the mini car, and tried to open the door forcibly.
The Metropolitan Police Department, which received a report from the man, checked the dashcam footage and determined that it was agitated driving, and sent the documents to the inspection on the 2th.
The driver admitted the charges and said, "I was angry when the horn was honked."
