"Turtle Taxi is a Japanese car service run by the Sanwa Koutsu Group
that distinguishes itself from the competition by driving at greatly
reduced speeds. Each taxi features a button near the passenger’s seat
which, when pressed, tells the driver to slow down and displays a turtle
on the windshield to alert nearby cars. The service is reportedly
popular with pregnant women and elderly passengers and also supposedly
reduces CO2 emission due to fewer changes in speed."
What an interesting idea!
Share and enjoy,
