Official description

Go out in the traffic and play! Hi-Way is completely new generation in driving games. Designed for spectacular realism, Hi-Way puts your players literally in the driver’s seat in the middle of speeding traffic. Watch the road! Your skill and nerve is challenged every second. You climb in, your quarter fires it up. You step on the gas... excitement builds higher and higher as you fight to keep your car on the road (which is constantly moving every which way under your wheels!) and avoid crashing head-on into traffic as you try to pass slower
cars. You’re driving against the clock (it’s operator adjustable) to pile up as many miles as possible, so you have to be sharp... and quick! Look out for
that curve! Shut down the competition! You have a winning set of wheels with Hi-Way. Indestructible moulded fiberglass chassis, detachable "bucket" seat, reliable Durastress™ tested solid state circuits and monitor, and all-metal gas pedal make you the king of the road. Ideal for arcade play, bowling alleys - you name it. Hi-Way’s a profit winner any way you look at it.
You’re in the driver’s seat. Follow the Atari highway into the future - and big dollars. Get the jump on the daily gran prix.
