Appendix C
Sample Driving Courses

  1. Here is the Annotated Driving Course I created for Hiroshima Prefecture based off of the official map. The course has been the same for years and hopefully will remain so. The annotations were based upon my own experiences.

  6. Here are some course maps I found online at some other sites. They are not annotated, but they are interesting to look at for comparison.

    Shiga Driving Course (GIF) This one, from the official prefectural site, only shows the layout of the course, not which way you must drive. Still interesting.

    I'd love to someday have all the prefectures.
