And when there is time for a break, taxi drivers are happy to settle down to sleep in cars, not paying attention to the crowds scurrying around.
British photographer William Green shot a curious photo series about the daily work of Japanese taxi drivers. Obviously, in Japanese culture, sleeping in a public place is a completely normal phenomenon. Moreover, sleeping in plain sight is even a sign of hard work.
Green told how the photo series began: "I was working on several projects in Japan when I came across this curious phenomenon.
Walking down the street, I came across a place where there were a lot of sleeping people, although it was not a taxi stand.
Apparently, it is permissible for Eastern culture to sleep in public. In the UK, you will only see people sleeping on the street if they are dead drunk or really exhausted."
