article: Instead of driving on the right side of the road like you would in the U.S., stay to the left when you're in Japan. Car layouts are also reversed; the driver's seat and steering wheel are on the right side of the vehicle. As in most nations, green lights, yellow lights, red lights, arrows, and flashing lights control traffic flow in Japan. Green means go, yellow means stop if you can do so safely, and red means stop.  Yellow means the light is about to turn red. If you're traveling rapidly (but within the speed limit) and cannot stop safely, you may proceed through a yellow light. When you spot a flashing yellow light, proceed cautiously. When you see a flashing red light, treat it like a stop sign. Stop briefly at the stopping point, then proceed if there's no oncoming traffic. Note that you can't turn left on red in Japan the way you can often turn right on red in the U.S. Speed limits are measured in kilometers per hour and are often posted along the road. Typically, speed limits range between 80 and 100 km/h (50 and 62 mph) on expressways, 40 km/h (25 mph) in urban areas, 30 km/h (19 mph) on side streets, and 50 to 60 km/h (31 to 37 mph) on rural roads.  Speed limit signs look like a number inside of a red circle. An underlined number indicates the minimum speed limit. If there are no speed limit signs posted, which is common in rural areas, the limit is generally 60 km/h (37 mph) on standard roads and 100 km/h (62 mph) on expressways. Typically, traffic signs on main roads in urban areas are written in both Japanese and English. However, they're usually only posted in Japanese in less populated areas. Stay on the safe side and do your best to memorize important traffic signs, including stop and exclusive lane signs.  In Japan, a stop sign looks like a red inverted triangle. The word “Stop” is written on it in Japanese; the English word “Stop” may appear under the Japanese script. Note that a stop sign is solid red, while a white inverted triangle with a red border means drive slow. Watch out for blue signs with an arrow under an image of a bus. That means the lane is only for buses. Similarly, a blue sign with an arrow under a bicycle indicates a bicycle-only lane. Many of the signs you'll see in Japan are fairly self-explanatory or similar to those you'd find in the U.S. and other countries. For instance, a yellow sign with 2 curved lines beneath a car means slippery road. Review a full listing of Japanese road signs at http://www.jaf.or.jp/e/for-overseas-drivers/driving-in-japan.htm. Roadside parking is hard to come by in Japan, especially in metropolitan areas. Circular signs with a red diagonal line means no parking; signs with a red “X” mean no stopping or parking. As a rule of thumb, it's better to just assume there's no parking on a street if you don't see a sign, especially if you're in a big city.  Parking lots in big cities tend to be pretty expensive, or upwards of ¥1,000 per hour ($10 U.S. dollars or more). Fees decrease as the population becomes less dense, and free parking is easier to come by in rural areas. In metropolitan areas, elevator parking lots are common. They're pretty cool! You park on a lift, pay the fee, and your car is either sent up in a tower or stored underground. Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is illegal, and the penalties for driving under the influence are severe. The legal limit is 0.03% (compare that with the limit of 0.08% in most of the U.S.), but a police officer can determine that someone was driving drunk regardless of breathalyzer readings.  Punishment for driving while intoxicated may include up to 5 years imprisonment with mandatory labor and a fine of up to ¥1,000,000 ($9,000-9,500 USD, as of May 2019). Additionally, providing a driver with alcohol, providing an intoxicated person with a vehicle, and riding as a passenger with a drunk driver all carry stiff penalties.

There are a number of rat traps on the market, but it's important that you choose the right kind to keep your rat safe.  Many traps are designed to catch a rat or mouse using bait and a trap door.  These are often the safest types of traps for catching your pet rat.  Only purchase traps that state “humane” or “live trap” on the packaging. Some traps advertise that they are “humane killing” traps because they don't cause pest mice to suffer.  Make sure the trap you choose specifies that it keeps the rat caught alive. The Havahart mousetrap (commonly called the “have a heart” mouse trap”) is unique because it is open on either side, allowing your rat to enter the trap from more than one direction.  These traps are made of wire mesh and are designed to be safe for you and your pet rat.  Position the bait in the center of the mouse trap so it will have to enter the trap completely from either side in order to get to it. These traps are reusable and offer enough room inside for your rat to move around until you find it. When placing your bait in this trap, it helps to add a small dab of peanut butter in the center, then place candy or treats in the peanut butter.  This will prevent your bait from moving away from the center of the cage. The Smart Mouse Trap is among the most aesthetically pleasing traps on the market because it looks like a small green house for your rat!  It is also recommended by humane societies and animal rights organizations all over the world.   This trap involves using bait your rat won't actually get access to (it's inside a plastic container) so you will need to use strong smelling bait like bacon bits or strong smelling cheese. This trap works by using a steel spring to shut the plastic door on the house after your rat enters the trap. You may want to include some bait inside the trap itself so your rat has something to eat while it waits for you to come back. If you have a treat you often give your pet rat, use that as the bait in your store bought rat trap.  The smell of treats may lure your rat out into the open and to the trap and you are most likely to catch your pet rat with bait you know it likes.  Other options for bait include:  Peanut Butter Bacon Oatmeal Crackers Even slim jims! You may catch your pet rat quickly, but it could feasibly take some time, so return often to see if your trap has sprung.  Check back every two hours to make sure your rat doesn't go too long without water. Check the bait to make sure your rat hasn't eaten the bait without springing the trap. If you are unsuccessful in catching your rat for a day or two, look for a new place to put the trap or consider changing your bait.
