Join the Exciting Traffic Safety Quiz and Activities at Gas Science Museum
The Japan Automobile Federation (JAF) Tokyo Branch, led by Director Kazuo Kato, is excited to announce a special event at the gas science-themed museum, _Gasutena-_ni_, on August 21st (Friday) and August 22nd (Saturday). This gathering coincides with the summer event titled "Puka Poka Pika's Memories Festival: Onward to the Next Future!" and is part of JAF's initiative to promote traffic safety awareness.
During these two days, attendees of all ages will have the opportunity to engage in an interactive quiz competition, _"Safety Go!"_, designed to educate participants about crucial traffic rules in a fun and informative way. There will also be a unique crafting workshop where you can create your very own _"Pupopirekka car"_ along with a special greeting session featuring JAF's eco-driving character, _Eko-ten-kun._
JAF's Commitment
JAF Tokyo has shared insights and collaborated closely with the museum in previous years, successfully participating in the Spring event in March 2026. As the museum prepares to close its doors at the end of September, JAF aims to energetically contribute to the final summer event, leaving attendees with unforgettable memories. The collaborative efforts encourage and foster a deeper understanding of traffic rules among visitors, while also providing enjoyable content through workshops and character meet-and-greets.
