I was divorced, still live in Japan, and my ex does not let me see my daughter. She made me sign the divorce papers that gave her full custody, that was written in KANJI, my not knowing how to reay Kanji, signed it under the pretext of it was a insurance application for us and BAM!!! Divorced and no right to my daughter whatsoever. And the legal aspects will ALWAYS side with the JAPANESE NATIONAL. I have no grounds to stand on being an American living in Japan. Now, all I have to hang on to is the simple fact that my daughter will eventually know she is not full Japanese and want to know where her father really is... that is why I do everything I can to stay close, so when she does, she can find me. I DO HOPE THEY PASS THIS SO I CAN FINALLY SEE HER! Its been 5 years!

Wow... and nobody died? That is unreal. Glad to hear everyone is OK. Good karma for all involved.

The new Drinking and Driving Law in Japan make this a legal binding arrest. Its the same when they arrest the passengers and the owner of the establishment who serves the alcohol. I don't agree to it, but I think its a fair trade when it comes to all the knuckleheads drinking and driving like its cool!

He was probably thinking of using that money for some "extra curricular" activities with his blind date. BUSTED!
