Same in Japan, at least on neighborhood streets (自転車を除く signs）. Plus, unlike USA, major traffic is well-separated from residential roads. There are also plenty of bike routes, greenways, and bridges/tunnels above/below major roads.
I'll be moving there as soon as they re-open their borders, and I couldn't be more excited. It's cyclist heaven.

- benrbray 6y ago緑のトラフィックってなに？ If you're asking about greenways, here's [1] an article with some pictures. There's an extensive network of bike-able paths throughout the entire city, If you're asking about pollution, Japanese cars are generally smaller and I believe electric cars are popular there. More trips are also taken by train / bike / moped, reducing overall emissions. Also, the roads + signals seem to be designed well, so there is less stop-and-go traffic.
