​"Toyota City Traffic Safety Learning Center" is a place where you can learn while experiencing the causes of traffic accidents and safe traffic behavior. It was born in 2010 after the relocation of Toyota City Traffic Park, which was in the city.

In addition to mini SL and go-carts, there are also playground equipment for children on the premises.

Let's Learn with Family! "Traffic Safety Learning Center"

The “Traffic Safety Learning Center” is located right after entering the site. You can learn the correct traffic rules and have fun learning about traffic safety through various experiences.

On the first floor, there is a reception, a shop, a kids' space, and a classroom where classes are held for children who attend kindergartens and elementary schools in Toyota City. On the 2nd floor, there is a theater and a virtual stage where you can learn about traffic safety while answering hands-on learning corners and quizzes.

First, let's check the status of each event, the starting time, the business hours of the rides, etc. at the reception.

The shop sells drinks, light meals, key chains of the character "Himawari-chan (sunflower-chan)" of Toyota City Traffic Safety Learning Center and traffic safety goods.

The rest space where you can eat and drink is bright and open. Luggage lockers are also installed.

There is a kids' space where even small children can play safely.

Under the stairs in the center, there is a booth where you can create a traffic safety quiz rally license card (200 yen). You can also try it for free.

A profile photo is also taken on the spot, and it will be completed soon. A license card that looks like a real driver's license with your name on it is popular with children.

Hold the quiz over the five green terminals in the facility. If you clear the stage, it will become a gold license card. Parents and children can think together and reconfirm their knowledge.

On the 2nd floor, you can learn through experiences such as "Let's check your traffic safety ability", "experience simulation", "truth about traffic accidents", "virtual stage", and "traffic safety check" to reduce traffic accidents. 

First, let's measure your physical functions such as eyesight, hearing, and physical strength.

Situational judgment is a game-like judgment check. You can see how accurately you reacted to the displayed signs and signs.

A quiz to answer in each situation, such as the parties to the accident and witnesses. You can have a simulated experience of whether you can make a calm and correct decision in the face of an accident.

A video using a dummy doll projected on the screen conveys the impact of an accident and the importance of fastening your seatbelt.

Everyone can participate, so it seems that the final ranking announcement will be particularly exciting.

When you look through the small window and press the button, the light turns on, and you can experience the importance of night visibility and reflective materials.
