| * | Large-size special purpose vehicles and small-size special purpose vehicles are not eligible for either of the services above. | |
1. |
Road Service does not cover vehicles weighing more than 3,000 kg including their cargo. And in case of a long-distance transfer or infringement of the law such as illegally remodeled vehicles, vehicles that have not passed the current car inspection (Sha-ken), vehicles not covered by compulsory automobile liability insurance, or drunken driving, the Service will not be provided. |
2. |
The Service may not be provided for vehicles on which JAF's equipment and/or vehicles do not work effectively (for example, unlocking of specially constructed keys, serious accidents or fallen vehicles) or whose construction does not allow towing, or when there is no place nearby to tow the disabled car. Even in such cases, please contact our Road Service Call Center in the area so that we can assist you such as by introducing other service providers that can deal with the situation. |
3. |
The Service may not be provided even for applicable vehicles in the event they are carrying loads such as valuable or hazardous goods, or perishable products that our Service might damage, degrade or endanger. |
4. |
We cannot assist you on roads that are closed to traffic, seasonally closed or for construction work, where general vehicles are prohibited from passing, and in areas that the Minister in charge has designated as "no thoroughfare" for reasons of the nature and/or environmental conservation. The Service may also not be provided when it is extremely difficult for our vehicle to travel such as on icy or snowy roads, or in non-level areas, coastal areas or riversides, as well as in the event a natural disaster could threaten or make our work difficult. |
5. |
In some isolated islands, the Road Service cannot be provided. |
6. |
Flat tires may not be fixed at site. Please consult us when you call. |
7. |
In case of breakdown or accident on a road, precautions such as placing a stop sign should be taken to avoid secondary accidents. Especially on expressways and motorways, the law requires drivers to place a stop sign behind their vehicles. After taking those precautions, please move to a safe place such as outside of the guardrail and wait for our service car to arrive. |
8. |
If special expenses such as parking fees at parking lots or fees for a car ferry (both ways) arise, such expenses will be borne by the customer who requested the Service. |
9. |
Some types of our work require the driver's license or car inspection certificate to be shown. |
10. |
If the Service requested may affect the place or possessions of a third party, please contact those concerned for their approval. |
11. |
Road Service operations on expressways and motorways inherently involve major risks. Your cooperation and understanding is appreciated as it may take some time for us to take proper safety precautions. |
