Another area that I think needs big reform in Japan is legislation that allows for electric wheelchairs and similar devices for medical use (such as by elderly people or anyone with mobility problems) to be used anywhere. There are many companies that either have such devices in Japan that they can't sell, or companies that want to sell there but can't, because there are laws against riding electric devices on the sidewalk, and it's too dangerous to ride those on the street.
