Synopsis: 25-year-old Jinnai Madoka is a new traffic police officer who got her wish to be assigned from the General Affairs Division to the Traffic Division. 48-year-old veteran police sergeant Kanazawa Yukihiko (Yasuda Ken) is paired with Madoka as her mentor. The first accident she has to handle is a collision at a traffic intersection late at night. The driver of an imported car claims that the light was in his favour while the driver of a compact car died in hospital. Neither of the cars have dash cams and it is not clear which driver ran the light. The dead driver’s younger sister (Iinuma Ai) insists the light was green but she is visually impaired. Besides this case, there are other traffic accidents that occur daily that dramatically change people’s fates including an accident created by a novice driver due to tailgating, and a misfortune caused by inconsiderate street parking.
