I seriously don't even want to get my license here because you always have to be on the lookout. Apparently this happened at an intersection with no stop light, so I can imagine it happening easily. Matsujun's was because of icey roads and no one was injured, so I think that was treated more lightly. Now though, Arashi isn't allowed to drive for the rest of the year because of these accidents. I always liked that they drove themselves though - shows that they are more humble than many other stars.

btw, both accidents happened close to where I live. But now because of the driving ban, I have no hope of meeting an Arashi member because they hit me with their car. haha.
Didn't Ayu also drive herself? I think I saw her driving from/to Saitama Arena in the 2007 documentary. But maybe that was staged. I also think it's good that they drive themselves. Or go by train - but honestly I find that very hard to imagine when 80% of the people surely will recognize who you are. Even if they don't bother you, it must be really weird.

Ha, maybe that means Arashi/Nino live close? Where was that again, Meguro?
