From a design perspective, one of the most structurally beautiful interchanges in Japan is this one pictured above of the Takaosan Interchange.

Located in the Western suburbs of Tokyo and completed in 2012, it’s a 12-way interchange that connects Route 20 with the Ken’odo. Nestled between mountains, it's hard to imagine the engineering challenges that had to be overcome. But perhaps that is what resulted in the beautifully curvaceous structure.

That looks like a lot of fun, till you realize how many Asian women you'd be sharing the road with.

Fortunately the Japanese account for these things and their speed limits are extremely low relative to the rest of the 1st world. Top speeds on the highway are usually 80kph (50mph) and 50kph (30mph) in the city. Also japs are far superior to chinks in terms of driving.

I do not care for those top speeds, quite unfortunate. I did have a feeling that Japanese women outperform the chinks, but I didn't want to assume.
