For those who have never driven on mainland Japan, on normal streets and highways, everyone is pretty laid back and actually kind. As long as you stay less than 8-10 KPH over, even the cops leave you alone. BUT…toll roads are very different! You roll up to a booth that has an arm down, you get your ticket, the arm raises. That’s not just to allow you to proceed. No, it’s a starting gate to the race! Hahaha! I swear, everyone drives like they are being chased by armed gunman! That sweet lady who waved you into traffic miles prior to the toll roads? She’s blocking you by running 200 KMPH in the slow lane! hahaha
