minus-squarejaschen306@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoNever. While not in Japan, I live in Taiwan and we have some Japanese imported Kei cars. The majority of Taiwan driving is city. We don’t have many highways. In Japan and Taiwan, esp in the city, the average speed is like 35mph. Even on the highway, most cars are not driving faster than 55mph. In some parts America, it’s mostly highway driving. Those Kei cars are death traps.
