You fail your driving test in Japan if you don't check under the car for animals before starting the engine.
As it should. Not sure about the rules in Taiwan, but I think it's a cultural thing to tap the car bonnet loudly before getting into the car, especially in winter times, so any animals that might be sleeping under the car will know to leave.
