Kōreisha mark

The Kōreisha mark (高齢者マーク, elderly car mark) is a statutory sign that is set up in the Road Traffic Law of Japan to indicate "aged person at the wheel".

Its official name is "aged driver sign" (高齢運転者標識, kōrei untensha hyōshiki).

The law decrees that when a person who is aged 70 and over drives a car and if their old age could affect the driving, they should endeavor to display this mark on both the front and rear of the car.

Outside Japan, owners of Japanese classic cars have adopted this symbol, regardless of the driver's age.

[citation needed] Japanese car enthusiasts overseas also use the Koreisha mark to indicate that they are an experienced driver as opposed to the Wakaba mark which indicates that they are new or a learner type driver.
