Description
[Post] On the way home by car, after turning from Yahashi Community Center, there was a 120 cm bear in the middle of the road on all fours. When I stopped the car, the bear also stopped; I slowly backed up and it moved toward Sugawara Shrine.

A bear stopping in the middle of a residential road right after a community center, then heading toward the shrine area - that's a populated zone, not somewhere remote.
