Driving in Mihara, Japan

Essential car rental and self-drive tips for exploring Hiroshima Prefecture

Can I drive in Japan with my US driver's license?

Yes, but you need an International Driving Permit (IDP) issued by an authorized organization in your home country. US-issued IDPs are valid in Japan. Alternatively, you can obtain an official Japanese translation of your US license through the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF) for a small fee. Without either document, renting a car is not possible.

Does Mihara require an ETC card for expressway tolls?

Highly recommended. The expressways connecting Mihara to Hiroshima City and other destinations use electronic toll collection. While some booths accept cash, renting an ETC card (typically ¥300-500/day rental) saves time and often provides discount on tolls. Calculate your trip—Hiroshima-Mihara expressway tolls run roughly ¥1,000-2,000 one-way.

Do I need winter tires or snow chains in Mihara?

Yes, from December through March, snow chains are legally required on certain roads in the mountainous areas near Mihara. While the town itself rarely gets heavy snow, Route 2 and mountain passes can be icy. Most rental companies offer winter tires for ¥1,500-2,000/day extra. Always confirm availability when booking.

What is the speed limit and how strictly is it enforced?

Expressways: 80-100 km/h. National routes: 40-60 km/h. City roads: 30-40 km/h. Speed enforcement uses fixed cameras and mobile patrols. Fines range from ¥12,000-25,000 for speeding violations, and points are added to your license. In rural Hiroshima, police checkpoints are common during holidays—always carry your IDP and rental documents.

Is fuel readily available near Mihara, and what type should I use?

Gasoline stations are less frequent in rural Mihara compared to cities—expect gaps of 10-15 km between stations, and many close by 7-8 PM. Diesel is available but verify your rental vehicle type. Most stations are self-service. Always refuel when the tank drops below half. Full-to-full policy is standard—returning with less than full incurs steep refueling charges.

I'm over 65—will I face any restrictions or extra fees?

No upper age limit exists in Japan for renting or driving, but some rental companies apply a senior surcharge (¥1,000-2,500/day) for drivers over 65. Conversely, drivers under 25 pay a young driver surcharge of approximately ¥3,000-5,500/day. Mihara's quiet rural roads are generally senior-friendly, but ensure your health and travel insurance covers driving in Japan.
