1. Where did Ryoko Hirosue's accident occur? A complete look at the scene
Ryoko Hirosue's accident occurred inside the Awagatake Tunnel on the Shin-Tomei Expressway (inbound) in Kakegawa City, Shizuoka Prefecture. On April 7th, Hirosue's car rear-ended a large truck in front of it while traveling through the tunnel. The impact caused the vehicle to hit the wall, and the recoil caused it to bounce into the passing lane, where it came to a halt. This area is known for its poor visibility and for being a place where speeding can easily lead to serious accidents. Just before the accident, Hirosue and her male passenger switched drivers at the Hamamatsu Service Area (Hamamatsu SA). The investigation included an on-site investigation of the driving conditions from the SA to the tunnel.
2. Why was the car speeding over 180 km/h? Mysterious behavior before and after the accident
According to investigators, Hirosue's car was likely traveling at an "abnormal speed" of over 180 kilometers per hour, and there were almost no clear brake marks left at the scene. The police initially considered filing charges of dangerous driving resulting in injury, but because it was difficult to determine whether the highway environment constituted a "high speed that was difficult to control," they ultimately changed their policy to refer the case to prosecutors on suspicion of negligent driving resulting in injury. On the day of the accident, Hirosue was observed to be behaving "unusually," such as yelling, but drug tests did not detect any illegal drugs such as marijuana or stimulants.
3. Post-accident response: The process from on-site investigation to arrest and release
After the accident, Hirosue was transported to a hospital in Shimada City, where he was arrested on the spot for kicking a nurse and scratching her arm, causing injuries. However, nine days later, he was released with charges pending. He later announced that he had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and hyperthyroidism. On July 28, approximately three months after the accident, on-site inspections were conducted in his presence at both Hamamatsu SA and Awagatake Tunnel. Investigators carefully examined the situation, and Hirosue explained what happened at the time from inside the car.
4. Reasons for the referral of documents and future prospects
Based on an on-site investigation and multiple voluntary interviews following the accident, Shizuoka Prefectural Police are expected to refer Hirosue to the prosecutor's office on November 13, 2025, on suspicion of negligent driving resulting in injury. To summarize the series of events, this accident was a serious one, involving a rear-end collision at extremely high speed, no brake marks, and multiple collisions with walls, and the investigating authorities are expected to decide on a final disposition (fines or prosecution) within the year.

6. Why did the accident happen now? Experts' opinions
According to lawyer Masaru Wakasa, former deputy chief of the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office's Special Investigation Division, on-site investigations of traffic accidents often take time, and an on-site investigation three months later cannot be said to be particularly late, depending on various conditions such as the physical condition and situation immediately after the accident, the status of the settlement, etc. Furthermore, although there is a high possibility that the injury case with the nurse will not be prosecuted due to the settlement, the investigation into the traffic accident itself needs to continue, which is said to have led to the decision to refer the documents to the prosecutor's office.
