On December 15, East Japan Railway Company (JR East) announced that it will launch an awareness campaign to warn against dangerous recording and photography behavior on station platforms. The company has created posters calling for the prevention of dangerous behavior, which will be displayed at major stations starting on the 16th.
The posters illustrate four types of behavior as “dangerous recording / nuisance photography”: shooting with tripods or stepladders, leaning out from the platform to take photos, taking photos while standing on tactile paving blocks for the visually impaired, and recording with long boom-type equipment. The posters clearly state, “Absolutely do not engage in these actions.”
According to JR East, in recent years there have been numerous cases in which dangerous behavior for the purpose of recording or photography on station platforms has caused inconvenience to station users. The company has also confirmed extremely dangerous behavior that could lead to contact with trains or electric shock.
