Awesome spot on a convenience store right before the IC booth, so you only get cars going on the national highway. My destination was Sendai and the driver was heading to Matsushima.―arcvelit

Morioka IC. Traffic moves much too fast. If you must try, from the side coming towards Morioka is probably better because there's actually some room on the on-ramp where someone could possibly stop, but I would not count on it.―Anonymous
