Slots on Sun Visor - Purpose?

[Lindah]

There are slots on the sun visor on the opposite side of the mirror.  Does anyone know what they are for?  The slots are on both the driver and passenger side.  Thanks!

Folding paper maps. Some still use them. Perhaps to store the registration and proof of insurance,

Good ideas- I was just wondering what Lexus intended them for.  I think maps would be hard to get in there but it would work for registration and insurance papers

Used for a Toll way pass to be inserted...

The slots are also used to hold plastic key cards for opening a parking garage, like an underground parking garage to a business or residential multi-story building.  These types of parking garages are endemic to urban life in Japan, so drivers in urban Japan will have more than 1 of these parking cards.

For any necessary driver's/vehicle document if getting pulled over by law enforcement.

Much less likely to get shot due to reaching in glove box
