Japan allows a person aged at least 20 who has held a motorcycle driver's license for at least three years to carry a pillion passenger on expressways, however, the Shuto Expressway in the central parts of Tokyo prohibit carrying pillion passengers due to poor road geometry. [1] The ban does not apply if the motorcycle is equipped with a sidecar. The segments with a pillion ban include the important C1 Inner Circular route and adjoining central Tokyo routes.

There are a few rubs in Tokyo Highway that really make it stand out as a dexterity game. The fact you can only score by going above or below the other player’s roads means inevitably you end up in this brain-baffling cat and mouse dynamic. Desperately trying to work out how to efficiently score cars by going over your friends’ roads without them being able to gain any for themselves. You can never stay on the same level with your roads, you must always go higher or lower using your grey cylinder pillars or yellow junctions. Roads? We’re Going To Need Lots Of Roads! LOD system making this big map work smooth even on integrated GPUs by loading much less assets at the same time in comparison to other ports Some models might have flipped normals if you see any place like that please attach (ALT+O) screenshot in the thread Reversed faces also eat vehicles. This is always bad so you never want reversed faces. It's likely a triangulation issue also.

Oh well, ok, This is the Shuto Expressway around Tokyo, Kawasaki, and Yokohama, about 100 kilometers of japanese highway to explore. The Shuto Expressway as it crosses Rainbow Bridge Near Shiodome, C1 Inner Circular Route Shinonome Junction Ginza, C1 Inner Circular Route Ariake Junction Bayshore route [ edit ] As you can see, all of these lines do have specific names, but between looking at GPS instruments and keeping your eye on the traffic, it’s difficult for anyone to fully take in all the information on the road signs, and so a numbering system is also employed. The Inner Circulate Route is called C1, the Central Circular Route C2, the Meguro Line No. 2 and so on. All lines are owned and operated by Metropolitan Expressway Co., Ltd. (首都高速道路株式会社) so unlike the capital’s train network you do not need to exit and enter toll gates to change from one expressway to another. Can’t I just use GPS navigation? Thus, in Kaido Battle 2: Chain Reaction, he challenged every rival and eventually challenged Koukami again at Aso. But Koukami won again, making Hamagaki angrier than ever. Eventually, since Iwasaki became depressed, Hamagaki cajoled him to race into the Kaido Circuit, but by doing so, he manipulated him, and lies to everyone saying that his team protects the Circuit from the Devils, while the Devils didn't know his real goal: to found the fastest Rally Team and Highway Team.

There are 21 parking areas scattered throughout the Shuto Expressway system. In general these are much smaller than the service areas available every 30 kilometers (19 miles) or so on inter-city expressways. In some cases there are no more than toilets, a few vending machines, and a handful of parking spaces. None have fuel – drivers must exit the system (and pay the toll again on re-entry) to use a service station. If all construction materials run out and the opponents has no penalties the game ends and they win. The 0.3km segment between Shiodome Junction and the Shimbashi exit is technically part of the Shuto Expressway system (designated as part of the Yaesu Route).It’s equal parts tactics and balancing – and it’s a shame the balancing is a little unbalanced, because otherwise this is a delight that you shouldn’t bypass. You enter and exit the shutoko at the junctions along each line. These are called “JCT” and each has its own name (no numbering system for the junctions). In the centre of Tokyo where the shutoko is often flying overhead, these entrances are on-ramps from the main roads that can look like any other road, but above each there will be a green sign with the kanji 首都高 ( shuutokou) written on and a few other warning signs in white. Before you join the expressway itself there will be a series of toll gates. I’ll get to the cost of using the shutoko below, but there are two ways to pay: The Inner Circular Route ( 都心環状線, Toshin Kanjō-sen), signed as Route C1, is one of the routes of the Shuto Expressway system serving the central part of the Greater Tokyo Area. The route is a complete loop around the central Tokyo wards of Chiyoda, Chūō, and Minato, with a total length of 14.8 kilometers (9.2mi). In addition to serving areas of central Tokyo, the Inner Circular Route also serves as the origin of the radial routes of the Shuto Expressway. A section of the expressway is built above the Shibuya River.
