Violation type
Seat belts and helmets
Seat belts, child restraints and helmets, as the points table names them.
The two tickets
Blue ticket, red ticket — the colour IS the legal category
aokippu 青切符 (blue)
hansokukin 反則金
Road Traffic Act, Art. 125 onward (the traffic-violation notification system)
An administrative track. Pay the stated amount within the deadline and no prosecution follows. It is not a criminal record.
akakippu 赤切符 (red)
bakkin 罰金
Road Traffic Act, Chapter 8 (penal provisions)
A criminal track. A court sets the amount within the statutory range. There is no fixed schedule to read it off.
This is not a "bakkin"
bakkin 罰金hansokukin 反則金 / hōchi-ihankin 放置違反金
罰金 (bakkin) is the criminal-law word. What you pay on a blue ticket is 反則金 (hansokukin); what a vehicle's registered user pays for an abandoned-parking case is 放置違反金 (hōchi-ihankin). Neither is a bakkin. The searched word is the wrong register, and this page names the one that actually applies.

Why this page looks different
These duties are named by the points table more than by the amount table
Most pages in this catalogue lead with an amount and add points beside it. This group is the other way round: seat belts, child restraints and helmets are named in the demerit-points schedule, and the amount schedule does not give each of them a category of its own in the same way.
That is a real feature of how these duties are enforced, not a hole in this site's transcription. Showing an empty amount column would suggest the amount table says something about these rows that it does not.
So this page shows what each table actually names. Where the amount table does carry a relevant category it appears above; where the points table is the instrument that names the conduct, that is what is shown.
Who the duty falls on
The duty is the driver's, including for passengers who cannot carry it themselves
These are duties about occupants, and for child restraints in particular the person who must comply is not the person being protected. The schedules name the driver's obligation.
That matters when reading a notice: the conduct recorded is something the driver did or failed to ensure, which is why it attaches to a driver's licence through the points register in the ordinary way.
Novice drivers
Novice-driver obligations are grouped here too
The points schedule carries rows about newly licensed drivers' own obligations, and they are grouped on this page because they belong to the same family of duties — requirements about how a vehicle is occupied and marked rather than about how it is driven.
They are shown as the table names them. This site does not model the separate novice-driver follow-up processes that can attach to a new licence, because that is a different mechanism and it has not been transcribed here.
What this system does not cover
What this site does not answer, and why
These are content, not gaps. Each is a bounded statement that a NAMED instrument does not contain something — never a claim that "the law is silent".
Death and injury by driving is a different Act
The Act on Punishment of Acts Causing Death or Injury by Driving was amended by the same Act that amended the Road Traffic Act (Act No. 52 of 2026), but its offences and penalties are its own. This site has not transcribed them. A case involving death or injury is outside this calculator.
- 自動車運転死傷行為処罰法, in force 2026-07-21
The payload's own note, verbatim (an instrument name in 【 】 is this site's)
自動車運転死傷行為処罰法 (death/injury-by-driving offences) is vendored in the corpus and was amended by the SAME act that amended 道路交通法 on 2026-07-21 (令和八年法律第五十二号) — but its own offence/penalty structure is a SEPARATE instrument and is not transcribed into this payload.
The summary-trial procedure is a different Act
The Summary Trial Procedure Act for traffic cases governs HOW a minor traffic case is disposed of. It is procedural and carries no amount of its own, so it is not modelled here. Its ceiling and this offence's own ceiling are two different figures.
- 交通事件即決裁判手続法, in force 2026-05-21
The payload's own note, verbatim (an instrument name in 【 】 is this site's)
交通事件即決裁判手続法 (the summary-trial PROCEDURE for minor traffic offences) is vendored — procedural, carries no rate figure of its own, and is not modelled here.
Minimum speeds are not transcribed
【道路交通法施行令】Minimum speeds are set by Cabinet Order Art. 27. Arts. 11 and 12 only point at it ("the next Article" / "the preceding Article"); the figure itself is not within what this site transcribed. It was read, and not taken.
- 道路交通法施行令 (Cabinet Order No. 270 of 1960), 第二十七条 — consolidation in force 2026-05-21
The payload's own note, verbatim (an instrument name in 【 】 is this site's)
最低速度 (minimum speed, expressway mainline — 第二十七条 and neighbours, referenced in passing by 第十一条/第十二条's own cross-references) is a separate figure this fixture did not extract.
Not every Chapter 8 article is covered
【道路交通法】Chapter 8 of the Road Traffic Act (Arts. 117–122) holds more articles than the ones this site joined to the hansokukin ceilings. Only the articles that Appended Table 2's own rows name are transcribed. Arts. 117 and 122, and Arts. 118-2 and 118-3, are referenced by no ceiling row and are not transcribed.
- 道路交通法 (Act No. 105 of 1960), 第八章 罰則（第百十七条―第百二十二条） — consolidation in force 2026-07-21
The payload's own note, verbatim (an instrument name in 【 】 is this site's)
Chapter 8 (第百十七条～第百二十二条) has MORE articles than the eight this fixture joined to jpFinesCeiling. Only the ones 【道路交通法】別表第二's own rows reference by locator are transcribed (第百十八条, 第百十八条の二/三 excluded, 第百十九条, 第百十九条の二の四, 第百十九条の三, 第百二十条, 第百二十一条); 第百十七条 and 第百二十二条 (and 第百十八条の二/三) are not referenced by any 反則金 ceiling row and are not transcribed here.
For a juvenile, the family court sets the amount
【道路交通法】Under Road Traffic Act Art. 130-2(1), second sentence, where a case reaches a family-court hearing the amount is set by that court within the Act's own Appended Table 2 ceiling. There is no fixed schedule figure to read off, so this site states none.
- 道路交通法 (Act No. 105 of 1960), 第百三十条の二第一項後段 — consolidation in force 2026-07-21
The payload's own note, verbatim (an instrument name in 【 】 is this site's)
第百三十条の二第一項後段: when a juvenile's case reaches a family-court hearing, the court MAY order 反則金 payment on its own schedule, and the AMOUNT is then set by the family court itself — "その反則金の額は、第百二十五条第三項の規定にかかわらず、【道路交通法】別表第二に定める金額の範囲内において家庭裁判所が定める額とする" — within 【道路交通法】別表第二's ceiling, but not read off any fixed schedule figure this fixture can transcribe as a number.
The mitigated floor is not stated
Penal Code Art. 15 carries a proviso: on statutory mitigation grounds a court CAN sentence below the floor. This site states only the un-mitigated floor and does not model when mitigation applies.
- Penal Code, Art. 15, proviso
Expressway mainline default speeds are out of scope
The default speed on an expressway mainline is set by Cabinet Order Art. 27, which this site has not transcribed. The general-road figure is never reused for it. On an expressway, enter the posted limit.
- Cabinet Order, Art. 27
No alcohol or BAC classification
This site's calculators do not classify alcohol readings. There is no verified threshold table here to drive one, and producing a number without it would be the opposite of accuracy.
- Not transcribed into this site's payload
No "will I lose my licence" prediction
Suspension and revocation from accumulated points are set by the Cabinet Order's Appended Table 3 together with Road Traffic Act Art. 103. Both were read; neither is modelled. There is no such calculator here.
- Cabinet Order, Appended Table 3 / Road Traffic Act, Art. 103
No foreign-licence or visitor-specific rules
Nothing in the material this site read carries rules specific to foreign licences or cross-border drivers. This English bundle is a translation of the same claims and makes no additional ones.
- Not transcribed into this site's payload
Where to physically pay is not stated here
What the statutes give is the deadline and the no-instalments rule. Counters, banks and opening hours are not sourced, so they are not written. Follow the instructions printed on your own notice.
