Why are even cement trucks spotless on Japanese roads?

Today, I happened to see a post posted by a netizen two years ago on the forum. I was a little emotional and confused. I'll write it down and discuss it with you

This guy went to Japan from Ningbo on 20 15 and was shocked on the streets of Japan. There is a simple reason. He thinks: the cars running on the roads in Japan are so clean!

My buddy also sent some pictures to prove how clean the car he saw was. It can be seen that the cement trucks, trucks and buses running on the road are spotless without exception.

To tell the truth, I have never been to Japan, and most of my impressions of Japan and the Japanese nation are learned from other people's books (Chrysanthemum and Knife). Although we have a deep entanglement with this neighbor, no matter who talks about Japan, these adjectives are hard to deny "clean", "stiff", "polite" and "meticulous".

So is this the real Japan? At least this post can reflect the problem from one side.

In our impression, trucks, earth-moving trucks and cement trucks coming out of construction sites and freight yards are all dusty. Over time, we have formed a mindset: shouldn't engineering vehicles be like this?

Therefore, it is hard for us to imagine that the Japanese can maintain engineering vehicles so well, and even think that engineering vehicles have been reasonably respected in Japan. On the contrary, they will certainly think that all engineering vehicles outside Japan are too dirty in the world, right? !

Many people always blame such problems on quality. But in fact, quality is only an educational problem for one or two generations (how many years has quality education been put forward? )。 What I want to ask is, should it be a question of thinking mode? Is it because of the casual work and lax attitude that you have no awe of the tools of production and the guys who make money? In other words, if a driver treats his car as grateful as a work partner, will he tolerate his car being dirty?

Of course, it is entirely possible that this is a problem of system design. Perhaps some people in the industry know whether the Japanese engineering community requires engineering vehicles on the road to meet certain standards of cleanliness. This involves the issue of social management. Of course, if we dig deep, it is still a group's attitude towards life and work.

What I know is that in Japan, before a batch of new buses go on the road, there will be a religious ceremony similar to offering sacrifices to the gods. It is conceivable that this reverence for the profession and professional tools will be rooted in every practitioner's heart, followed by a very strong moral bottom line: not only to be diligent in work, but also to be awed by colleagues and production tools, otherwise you will suffer.

There is no intention to make any comparison between China and foreign countries. After all, there are many differences. But in the spirit of learning from anyone who is better than yourself, it is not bad to learn from others' practices and mentality. People who are aware of these problems can start from the things around them without requiring social knowledge.
