Headword 1 | 警察手帳 |
Reading 1 | けいさつてちょう |
Part-of-speech | n |

Reference | japanese wikipedia page on 警察手帳, google images likewise. |
Comment | Police notebook and 警察手帳 do not match in meaning:
A police notebook, pocket notebook or PNB is a notebook used by police officers to officially record details and incidents while on patrol. 警察手帳(けいさつてちょう)は、日本において、・・・身分を証明するものとして使用される。 Therefore, 警察手帳 is what we would call a police ID card. |

Headword 1 | 走り屋 |

English 1 | street racer |
Reference | -屋 refers to the person/people committing the act, as is also evident from the Japanese wikipedia page: ・・・暴走する人や集団を指す俗称。 so "street racer" is more appropriate. |
