Kei-cars are the smallest class of cars allowed on highways in Japan. Japan highway speeds are quite low at 100km/h, which is still more than twice what this car is limited to.

On intercity highways in Japan you are driving next to as large trucks as anywhere I've driven.

Good correction, I was pretty sure they weren’t allowed on highways but I must have misunderstood.

		Kei cars in Japan are definitely allowed to go on their freeways. I have done big roadtrips all over Japan and I see kei cars all the time on the freeways. They just stay in the slow lane but I have seen ambitious kei cars drivers even pass regular cars in the passing lane :)
