I've seen this badge around a few times, and I think someone explained what it's significance is, but I forget:

Can someone explain it? Thanks!

That is a Wakaba badge, which indicates a novice driver.

The other one is a Kareha badge, which isan emblem for a driver with more experience in Japan and called a "Silver Mark". The driver must give their way to the vehicle on the road with this emblem by the traffic law.

:twisted:

From what i have read the wakaba badge is for people that have been driving for less than 1 year and the Kareha badge is placed elderly drivers cars. They are used as warning signs for other drivers to see.

Correct. WARNING: YOUNG KID or WARNING: OLD PERSON.

I want the old person sticker for my Miata.

Man, we NEED stuff like that in the US!

 

[grinerizer]

I agree, and a much tougher driving test/driving school.

 

[metalhead]

Actually we don't need a bunch of bullshit vehicle related regulations like Japan has.
Californias insane system should tell any thinking person that!

Tougher driver training before a licence...yeah maybe.

 

[TrophyFodder]

Would an old person who just learned how to drive use both?

I crack me up!

I'll be here all week be kind to your waitresses.

Oh, we definitely need that! I'd say a good 2/3rds of the people on the road shouldn't be.
