Professional sumo wrestlers say they want to be allowed drive cars. The Japan Sumo Association currently bans active wrestlers from driving following an accident involving a senior competitor last April. The wrestler was suspended for one tournament as a result.
Yokozuna Asashoryu (left), who serves as chairman of the sumo wrestlers' organisation, said, "We just talked about the issue. Some sumo wrestlers are married and have children who need to be driven around."
