Posted in: Roughed up by the cops in Shinjuku See in context
I have been pulled up by the cops before on my way home. he was in uniform so no prob. I must admit I would be sceptical/careful of plain clothes people asking for my passport or gaijin card . But I would probably still show it if they showed a badge like they did in the case of the girls here. As far as I know they can ask for ID anytime they want. They way the cop was speaking to me seemed like he just wanted to talk to a gaijin in japanese, so used the gaijin card as an excuse. As for the shouldn't they speak some English. Like a lot of other posters said. Japan is not an English speaking country. Shouldn't you learn some Japanese before you come??? or at least carry a phrase book.
