The accuracy of the railroads of Japan is Japanese culture.
In fact, this is not only a good thing. For example, the houses in Japan are small and narrow and the cities are overcrowded. The price of land is also very expensive. That is, there is no margin for the equipment of a station or a track. If the time of one train is overdue, it will fall into wild confusion.
Therefore, operation of the railroads of Japan need to operate correctly.
This is what Japanese society can say generally. Japanese society is a very nervous society. It is too delicate. A symbolic accident was a derailment rollover accident of a train on the Fukuchiyama Line in Hyogo Prefecture in 2005. It was a tragic accident at 9:19 a.m. on April 25, 2005. The local train of the Fukuchiyama Line was derailed with the curve between Tsukaguchi Station and Amagasaki Station. Two cars at the head of the train crashed into an apartment building at the side of the track. The train which caused this accident was exceeding the speed limit. When a train is delayed, Japanese railroad companies receive many complaints from the passengers. The delayed driver received severe instruction from the railroad company. Therefore, the driver of the train, which was behind, was cornered mentally. However, the driver passed away, and 107 people were killed in this big accident.
