abstract="First seen in the 1950s, bosozoku (literally &quot;Violent Running Tribe&quot;) is a term for a Japanese subculture composed of gangs of young men or women who share a common interest in making (often illegal) modifications to their cars or motorcycles to increase noise and acceleration, engaging in dangerous very aggressive driving (weaving from side to side of the road at high speed in groups, ignoring red traffic lights and stop signs) or obstructionist driving (driving very slowly in vehicles with very loud exhaust systems while displaying flags, spears, swords, and occasionally throwing glass bottle petrol bombs). This report presents the results of a survey of public and scientist attitudes toward the bosozoku phenomenon.<p />",
