Changes

To get out, you have to find the places where drivers going out congregate, which in practice means '''service areas''' (サービスエリア ''sābisu eria'', '''SA''') or '''parking areas''' ('''PA''') on the large toll expressways (高速道路 ''kōsokudōro'') connecting Japan's major cities. As you might guess, service areas are larger and better equipped than parking areas, but surprisingly few Japanese are familiar with the difference so it's easier to label them all service areas.

It's convenient to get maps of SA and PA in Japan because these are major hitchhiking locations on the highways. You can find them on the web for each region (maybe you will have to google in Japanese: サービスエリア地図) or get them for free at many SA/PAs.
