    Various places in Japan, yes. Most, if not all, major urban centers require a parking cert from the police station saying they’ve verified your parking spot. There are exceptions (some places don’t require for kei cars, I’m pretty sure I didn’t need one for my motorbike in Tokyo, etc.)

    I didn’t need one where I moved in rural Tohoku for my kei car, but I think I’d need to get one if I got a full-sized vehicle.

      It make sense. If you want to own a big car you pay for a parking space. In SA they would prefer to make all home owners pay for a huge parking space regardless of if they want a big car or not. It’s better than having people dump them on the street but only barely.

      In my opinion Malinauskas is a poor labor leader and mainly represents the shoppies and big business.
