Future (Tokyo), a manufacturer and seller of electrically assisted bicycles, has released the Future Board 2, an electric board that can be ridden without a license. Since it can be driven while remaining seated, it is expected to be used for deliveries, sales, and other purposes. “Futureboard 2” can be driven while sitting.

It is classified as a “specified small motorized bicycle” (specified moped), a new category created by last year’s amendment to the Road Traffic Act, and can run on roads and bicycle paths at a maximum speed of 20 km/h. Anyone over the age of 16 can drive without a license. Prices start from 437,800 yen (tax included), and the maximum range is 200 kilometers. It is designed as a motorcycle type that can be driven while sitting, making it possible to perform tasks such as delivering packages, which are difficult to do with the stand-up electric kick scooters that are popular among certain mopeds. It will also be offered as a sharing service, where the vehicles can be rented out for a fee. “The vehicle can be used practically for sales, deliveries, commuting to work or school, and more,” CEO Keiko Ihara said at a press conference on the 28th. It can be purchased from dealers nationwide or online. Yomiuri Shimbun 2024/08/29 19:47.

If you were to hit someone at 20km/h, you’d easily break a bone.
There would probably be a lot of hit-and-run incidents.

I like the cool design, it looks like a moped scooter
It’s a great deal to be able to ride it faceless
I guess it will be treated the same as bicycles though.

This will inevitably become a social problem with frequent accidents and hit-and-runs. If people were to look into why such things were allowed and investigate, the names of politicians would come up, right?
Rather than having things like this, keeping 50cc mopeds that require a license would mean less work for police officers and ambulances.

You can get a license plate for a small special vehicle.

If this happens, anyone who drives for Uber will get hit and killed on a rainy day.

Huh? A license is required for delivery services.

As long as there are parking violations, these things won’t sell, right?

Since you’re using it for work, I assume you can get insurance for it?

It just looks like a board attached to a bike, but apparently you don’t need a license…

You’re right.
You’d be better off just buying a scooter.

I guess this would be convenient if the roads were improved for bicycles.

The electric scooter pushed by Amari and Taishiro Yamagiwa. I used to ride Lime in San Francisco, but you needed a driver’s license there.

Will schools not allow high school students to ride their bikes to work?

If I get a motorcycle license and buy something like a Dio110, it will be cheaper overall, right?

Well, if you really ride a bike or go downhill, you’ll probably get that much.

They are basically treated the same as mopeds, but they don’t make two-stage right turns, they drive on the sidewalk, and they seem to be driving while drunk at night, so they do whatever they want.

An accident at 10km/h may not seem like a big deal, but fatal accidents do happen. And both men and women are likely to ride in shorts and sandals and without helmets.

They’re using something that was banned in France. It’s obvious why it was banned.
