Finally someone drops some knowledge! Awesome bro
Ski Mask Dee dropping it hard. More knowledge will be dropped ;)
Basically Mustang drivers should have this sticker 😂😂
Is this Han?

If i lived in Japan and was an experienced driver i would still put the beginner sticker on my car so people would just stay away from me and not tail gate use reverse psychology on them.
in the UK we have the same concept but we have a red "L" that you put on your car to show people you are a learning driver. But over here it actually makes people drive closer to you and treat you like shit... LOL
+Benji Gardner the sticker would be the same as a P plate (new driver not learner driver) 😊
wonder if that would work in a race. lol
That's because the "L" in the United States means you're a BIG "Loser". Laughing out loud.
In Russia we have a similar sign for a new driver - black exclamation mark in a yellow square ( 365cars.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/znak-na-avtomobile.jpg ). Some drivers do really respond with aggressiveness - they can cut you off or tailgate and etc. Funny how the thing that's supposed to decrease chances of RTI sometimes makes it more possible due to dumbness of some people. I still think signs like this are a great idea - I guess the majority of people in most places are adequate and will use extra caution when they see this sign.
I think its funny that probably 85% of "JDM" people with those stickers on their car probably don't even know what it means.... lol
XD I know
DoggyB22 Ski Mask Dee everyone knew. People use it as a joke. Car Noobs and ricers don't even know.
I do and have one of those stickers on my civic
everyone know's this lol, it's an ironic thing especially in the states where non-car people don't know what it means
Thanks for the comments everyone! I'm glad it was helpful ;)
***** wow thanks for the support! Poster of my car!? Im speechless.
***** Thank you! S14 and 15s are one of my favorite cars as well ;)
Loved the vlog, i'd love to see more.
I'm living in Japan right now and honestly wondered earlier today what they meant - I keep seeing them on slow little kei cars and wondering what the correlation is to all the 'JDM Kids' and their Civics back home. Thank you!
I like JDM car guys buy the sticker for more Hp yo!
We already know when we're behind the elderly in the US. Just look for the Buicks.
Lol 👍👍
Finally someone explained this
Willy
but the people that have those on their cars usually do suck at driving so it fits
I went to a huge underground car meet last Saturday and I met this really cool EVO couple! Each one had a wide body EVO 8 with corresponding license plates EVOGUY and EVOGRL haha. I did some photography for them and here's a link to the album. www.flickr.com/photos/130306635@N03/sets/72157647662983743/
TheRecon4 awesome pictures. i love the voltexed out evo ;)
CZeroMedia Thanks man. Right when I saw them I thought of your EVO lol even though I know you have a 9. The only thing I wasn't a big fan of was the fact that they were both heavily modded and the red one has custom paint to, but they are both running XXR wheels :P
man those are beautiful pictures, great quality. where do you find car meets like this i have always been interested in meeting a large group of people that just want to look, talk, breathe about cars. My wrx is not the quality of these evo's but i would love to still bring my car and see some nicer ones :)
Kevin Duby Yes they are lol and this meet had an estimated 1400 people attending (according to Facebook confirmed attendees). The garage could only handle 700 cars lol, but I made it just in time. Anyways...
started going to meets when I got my 2015 WRX in April and the first thing I did was google Cars and Coffee Boston because I don't live to far away from there. Cars and Coffee is an old tradition that has spread to almost everywhere in the US. I highly recommend that you google Cars and Coffee in your area because most likely it exists and they are all encompassing meets which means you can meet a lot of people and find out about other meets.
Next I went through Nasioc (Nasioc.com) and looked at the meets section in there and found a meet in my area which I now go to every week on Wednesday night and we eat food and talk about Subarus. Find your region on Nasioc and you will be brought to a chapter of Nasioc that has threads that correspond to your area and you may be able to find some Subaru meets on there.
The number one way i find out about meets is actually through Facebook and that's literally all I use it for. The huge meet I went to was hosted by MassTuning and I highly recommend following the MassTuning Facebook page if you happen to be from Massachusetts and want to be a part of a huge car loving community. Through the meets I found I discovered other meets which usually use Facebook to organize events. These groups include Tuner Status, Night Kids, HardLine Motorsports etc. These are all Massachusetts based events but just incase your around here lol.
Finally be respectful. A small group of people easily ruin these meets for everyone else and it's not cool. At that huge meet there were specific rules against raving your engine since we were under ground and it makes it hard to breath but some people violated that and a few even did burnouts which then set off the fire alarms and it turned into a mess and Boston Police were not very happy with us because of one guy... Don't be that guy lol
Thanks man ill try that for detroit then. problem is there are a lot more old school guys here rather than a lot of tuners but we will see.
This is like all those people running around with Kanji on them that they have no idea what it means, but they think it means whatever is in their head. LOL.
***** haha it makes me laugh everyime i see kanji tattoos too. its so bad its embarrassing me.
youtubasoarus but In all reality it doesn’t really matter, what if you just like the style??
I used to have a Fujiwara tofu shop sticker ony my first car.
When Americans first started using the JDM stickers over 10 years ago. It was because we loved the JDM look of cars, and wanted to embrace everything about the culture, even if its just a goofy sticker with no meaning in the states. Its still has color, its still a JDM item, and it makes your car stand out from others. This can be said with all the other 10,000 stickers or decals put on your car. This is an accesory just like the pointless tow hooks, the hanging stuff animals on drift cars, the giant screw driver shift knobs, and those random items on top of the VW cars with baskets and sport gear mounts. Its just another way to accessorize a car such as jewelry is to humans. I dont think its a bad idea to use it in America, but could be different in Japan.
I think the reason that people with JDM cars who actually know what it means use the sticker since their car is so low they have to slow down a lot and try to avoid bumps and holes. Idk just an idea.
In Germany we dont have these stickers for old people but you know old people in front of you when the car he drives is a mercedes XD
A lot of people know it means "Novice Driver". In the USA, we just love our imports, we love Japanese Cars, we put them on our car because it is a Japanese thing. We all know JDM means Japanese Domestic Market, we just say JDM because it is a automobile term we chose over saying "Wow, that Supra is so badass because it is Japanese." Even if the car was made in the USA, we still say JDM as a way of saying the brand of the car itself is Japanese. Imitation is the greatest form a flattery so just take it as a compliment that even great drivers will put that emblem on their car to reflect on their love for the Japanese car brands
Sorry but LOL.
+Gerardo Mascorro I never said it made sense haha
+Calvin Conley It makes perfect sense, people like Gerardo are just too ignorant or arrogant to care.
I will put a Burger King sticker on my Chevelle because it is a USA thing and I love my Chevelle. That's How it sounds. And I am ignorant enough to care.
Gerardo Mascorro Sure, if you want to do that then do that. Why the hell does it matter? It still makes sense either way.
Though it'd be better if you put something car related on your Chevelle, lol.
あなたは日本人 ですか？I have these magnets on my car from when my wife learned how to drive when I was in Japan. She's been in Japan her whole life and never driven a car until we got married.
It's funny how a lot of people don't know what this means but there on all the "JDM" cars.
andrew reyes 日本人です！yea I figured I would spread the knowledge.
andrew reyes what does i mean then
Man, no wonder why all the Civics drivers at my high school suck at driving.
This is one of my favorite videos. i noticed these stickers when i went to Japan and i didnt think much but once i learned the meaning i thought maybe they were different from the "JDM" ones in the USA.
just people trying to be cool.
good on ya mate.
you have earned another subscriber!
RiotontheRadioMSCR thanks for the feedback and thankas for the sub!
When i go to car shows now I will be quietly laughing to myself when I see these stickers on cars!
@@ThatWasPrettyFunny hey no kink shaming
America should adapt a similar system for its drivers. Marking learners and senior citizens. However I am aware that could make them targets. But it would do more good than harm.
it's funny that most kids have no clue what it means. Honda kids usually think it just means JDM.
JDM as fuck? more like BEGINNER AS FUCK
AHAHAHAHAHA 😂 OH man, this is just funny when you think of all the fuccboiz that think theyre cool af at car shows with these stickers
🔰 *but it looks cool*😅
Thanks for the video
🔰
*J A P A N E S E S Y M B O L F O R B E G I N N E R*
i always knew those stickers ment "new driver" and "elder driver" but i thought it was like the novice sticker was for beginers in the car scene or racing and the elder driver was like some kind of honor badge for experienced drivers lol my perception was wat off

Never knew about this thanks and should do a fly by video with the honda cafe racer
thanks a lot man! now i can actually hate the assholes who put the leaf on their peugeots :'D
lol jk, great video tho :D
Maybe all the slammed stanced car's need the "elderly" stickers because they drop the anchors and turn sharply to go over a speed or get into a parking lot.
A lot of Kyusha cars use the Pre-2011 koriesha in the States. I have one on my RA40 Celica. Maybe I should put the handicapped sticker on my tailpanel as well...
yup I feel like I need it! don't want to destroy my front bumper due to lowered car lol :)
Learn somethin new everyday, great video, you should try the gopro from an angle so we can see you shifting and out of the windshield a little (cabin light maybe?) just a suggestion
That's a really great solution, really. Every country should have those stickers.
+deadseriousforsure L plates and P plates
Alot of people just found out they should take this sticker off.
here,in Argentina,i see several times ignorant drivers adding JDM stickers (like the leaf) on their Peugeot or Fiat cars,and its like WTF DUDE
not ignorant, the word is "uneducated"
Damico881 here in el salvador ignorant drivers put it in his cars thinking is a hipster logo but not is a rookie japanese drivers sticker
lol this video is blowing up my FaceBook newsfeed!
I never bother to look up what those sticker mean but car throttle fb brought me here and I'm glad I didn't put it on my car. Thanks for this info. Nice evo btw
That moment when you tell your friends this last summer and they don't believe you and they see this video and tell you this like you don't already know it -_-
Whats the point of having stickers in your car? Makes them look like a ricer tbh.
We should have those stickers for the elderly here in Australia cause like you said they tend to drive slow and make bad judgments like hitting the accelerator pedal instead of the break pedal
In Australia you put a dirty great "L" sticker facing forward and rearward while you're on your Learner's Licence. On this licence you drive under supervision, (from a fully licenced parent, instructor etc.) and fill in log books to accumulate driving hours.....
After a couple of years on your "L" plates you go for a driving test and if you pass you move to "P" plates that show others you're a Provisional Licence holder. "P" plate drivers are allowed to drive with no supervision but have a lot of conditions imposed while they are displaying plates - 0.00 BAC, driving hour curfews, passenger restrictions, restrictions on vehicle horsepower/weight ratios, maximum speed restrictions generally set at 80 - 90kph and others that may have come in since I went through all that....
Although every state is slightly different in how their systems work you'll see Learner and Provisional drivers displaying these labels all over the country...
The picture of the student driver car that you used is the exact student driver car I drove during drivers ed. Acton Boxborugh Regional Drivers Ed...look it up
I seriously hate when I see it on cars. They think its a sticker to represent JDM.
Japanese symbol for beginner
Basically the Novice driver sticker of Japan??😂
So, they are like 'P' plates in Australia? (The 'P' plates correspond to a provisional license. Red for the first year and green for the next two years. 'P' plate drivers have greater restrictions on alcohol consumption, power at the wheels, passengers after 11pm, etc.)
beginner stickers also exist in france and switzerland, except it's a magnetic letter you put on the back of your car. That's a great idea.
Thanks you! Everyone's always bagging on my civic saying I need to be more jdm. Funny thing to me is I've always known it to be Japanese domestic motors. I do laugh when I see those stickers now I'm gonna laugh way harder. Thanks again.
This was a needed information, I always wanted to know their meaning.
Great video for those who didnt know, tho i have always enjoyed seeing cars with them in the states because they are pretty much telling me they are a) fan boys b) dont know how to drive or c) both a and b. I'd suggest a topic for the next vlog since it seems like a natural progression " tow hook charms" thanks for reading . cheers
a friend of mine from the land of the rising sun also told me that guys who put them on (after the required first year) find it funny, because a nice car has those stickers, like good car driven by a noob driver something like that haha
in malaysia. once you get your car license you need to put a red P sticker. you can only remove them after you renew your license the next year else if caught you will be fined and your license may be suspended and you may have to retake the test for your driving license...
Things like this happen in the United States a lot just like the altezza lights here are considered ricer and they were popularized in 日本 です lol don't get me started on how different the civic there is and here
I always like learning about jdm things or style and or what the meanings are of certain things like the leaf. But Very informative video, great insight, great vlog. Keep up the good work and you should do a video talking about the kanjo
You just gained a new subscriber :) nice car and I like the Vlogs great content I have only watched a couple of videos :P
Japanese symbol for beginner
Cool, the more you know xD I think it would be fun to have the older sticker on a old ridiculous Japanese race car I own when I get older.
lol i already knew this and the only reason i do is because i own a taiko drum arcade machine, and the first difficulty has this on it.
lol. taiko no tatujin!
Haha I'm so glad to know this. I live in Oregon which in Oregon and Washington there is the most heavily populated of honda over the world lol. I see these all the time
It technically is "JDM" but, it's still dumb lol.
perfect video. no one knows that its a beginner sticker
Thnks for the information, didnt knew it. Btw, why no fast acceleration at the end of the video :P
ooo snap oooo snap car memes posted this on their fb page.....
i can just imagine how many people are currently running to their Civics and scraping the paint to get those stickers off. Thanks for finally clearing it up
I have seen those, but I had no idea what the heck they meant or were. Apparently I wasn't the only one. Thank you sir for the video explanation.
good stuff! can you do a video on how you got into the car scene? thought itd be a cool idea xD
I disagree with your logic that they would help in the US. They're a bad idea and shouldn't be implemented anywhere.
Reason is very simple: Other drivers will cause accidents. Happens all the time in the UK which has a similar system with their L plates. ESPECIALLY with bikers. Many accidents happen because people see the L plates, then they immediately cut the person off b/c they don't want to get stuck behind them, and they cause an accident. They're a bad idea, because people don't use it as a sign of caution, they use it as a reason to be aggressive.
those cams are music to my ears, i hope to get my car that stage, i have seen your vids bro and please do all your vids with the evo. awesome car
thanks for the compliments! there will be more evo videos ;)
Oh hey, isn't that 15 mile in Troy at the end?
Was looking for a channel like this. I love cars and definitely subscribed
shadow8890 thanks for the sub sir!!
lol this is awesome man, I'm seeing you video all over the place!!
That's actually a really good idea for new drivers to be marked. Why don't we do that in America? Hell why stop at youth/elders? There should be a sticker for people who have caused wrecks.
Konnichiwa! Great video!! Keep up the good work~!
Abel Swiftt haha thanks
I drive for 6 or 7 years, and a few months ago my grandpa said "you need a driving beginner sticker".
So I bought the Japanese one.
I also want to add sick bags for passengers in my car.
Smh most of my friends have this LOL! :p n00bs
thanks for that. still. beginner drivers for the win! lol.
Here in the US, when someone puts that sticker on their car they usually knows what it means, but instead of it having the meaning "noob" in Japan its a cool way to say hey I'm with this community and I like to par take in these activities
Haha New Jersey has a red Velcro sticker on the license plate for kids who are 17. I didn't put mine on because I'm a bad ass but they do have that law actually
Actually there are beginner stickers in the United States CZeroMedia . In New Jersey beginners are required to place these bright red stickers on the front and rear license plate to designate that they are new to driving. imgick.nj.com/home/njo-media/width620/img/traffic_impact/photo/nj-license-decals-kyleighs-lawjpg-34acd97fc61e7f1d-largejpg-08b92bf31647b38f.jpg
I never knew of this. i actually spent many years of my life in PA and never noticed these stickers. was this recently implemented?
I would say the law is 2-3 years old, but not heavily enforced due to its strong opposition before it was passed. There is a lot of concern about it causing more harm than good by giving predators easy targets.
ah. interesting. predators lol.
I live in nj and I had those stickers on for a short period of time but took them off because I feel it makes me more of a target.
Mike Delaney I felt that way so I never even bothered to buy them.
Well, people consider me as a "Bad Driver" since I'm lowered and have to go around every bump and slow down a lot for shit too, so yeah XD oh, and I also like to floor it every chance I get.
Get bags for your car, saves you time.
TheLoneLolcat i thought about it but coil overs were cheaper xD my friend had a set he never uesd so he sold it to me for $150
***** If you are really serious, save up. if not, adjust the stiffness of the springs.
TheLoneLolcat im serious, i got a whole set of coilovers from my friend for 150
I feel you bro. I've memorized all road imperfections so I can avoid that shit. What coilover setup did you get? I'm lowered on Tokico Illuminas and Skunk 2 Lowering Springs for $400.
I was told that the leaf sticker meant that you were a "amature" Racer and the elderly ones being a "professional" Racer. Clearly I had it all wrong
It's even funnier when they use the flower one which means you're an old age pensioner and need a wide berth lol
Thats actually new info for me thanx for the input
So this is the equivalent to the "L-Plate" in Australia?
I legitimately almost fell of my chair with laughter.
The beginner sticker became popular on the drift scene because drifters never passed the test to get the sticker off, so its a thing in the drift scene around the world cause its associated now with drifters failing the exam to take the sticker off.
Australia has "L" stickers (magnets & brackets that attach to the side of existing license plates) for Learners and "P" ones for Provisional for a time after graduating from "L" or are restricted for other reasons. The rules are complicated and limit what they can drive as well as how fast; in my area L=80 kph, P1=90 kph and P2=100 kph (that's roughly 55, 60 & 65 mph).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-plate
I'm ambivalent about it - over here drivers are extremely aggressive and passive-aggressive and road rage is very common, and it's not really the L- and P-players you have to look out for.
I wanna see the look on those ricers faces :D
Honestly I'm sure some drifter, or let's say 'car enthusiastic person' (Very possibly Japanese) slapped that sticker on in a sarcastic matter where it would just sarcastically mean he's a begginer (Pulling off shenanigans with cars and doing 'tricks'), someone who is a bit ignorant saw it, thought it was *THE ALMGIHTY DORIFTO sign* and broadened the wrong definition.
Rookie Driver Stickers... not a bad idea! But, would you tell Richard Petty(77) Darrell Waltrip (68) Cale Yarborough(75) or Mario Andretti(74) ... that they HAVE TO get the senior driver sticker??
Could you explain concept of JDM style and how not to end up building something else which isn't JDM. It's a car from Japans for domestic market, or tuned with OEM parts which make it look like car from Japan,or Tuned using Japanese aftermarket parts??? I'm only concerned about exterior part not technical. Thx in advance.
People say that the JDM Leaf Sticker is on every JDM car, but I disagree, because there are JDM cars out there with the Elderly JDM Leaf Sticker. But when people know what the meaning of the Leaf Sticker, they sure will take the Sticker off xD
Awesome video man!! +1 Subscriber!!
In france everyone says that it is the "FC Nantes" logo (a soccer team) and nobody believe me when I say that its not :(
*Japanese Symbol For Beginner*
This had to be done
very cool. Ive seen Sooo many of these on JDMs , these fools have No idea what they're sticking on their cars... doors and panels stacked with decals...Nitto,Yokohama,Eibach,Beginner Driver?
LOL those JDM stickers are like our P plates in Australia. In Australia drivers who just passed their learners license got to display their P plates for 3-4 years (depends how old you are). HAHA anyways, Awesome video man!
Japanese domestic market (JDM) is a term for Japan's economic market for Japanese-brand goods, such as automobiles and parts. The term's most common application is to Japanese-brand automobiles built specifically for the Japanese market, i.e., designed and constructed to conform to Japanese vehicle and equipment regulations and to suit Japanese market preferences. JDM vehicles migrate to other markets through ordinary commerce and the grey market.
Here in Germany we don't have any "marking" for new drivers either.
But I had a friend whose father bought a "tag" (big magnet reading "Fahrschule", German for "Driving School") that is used during the driving school lessons, and he'd secretly put it on the car whenever his son was driving.
I knew about that sticker for beginners driver, I have that on my 370z Texas license plate frame lol. even my buddy from Tokyo was laughing when I sent him the photo.
where should i put the elderly sticker ? im 40 ( OLD MAN LOL ) and love my WRX and have always had euro cars and did euro parts, so im trying to stay legit JDM and want to put it on correctly . its the orange/yellow leaf . also nice vid.
🔰I'm a new driver lol I have one
