Technically, none of them is correct. The comma, if it were needed, would be placed immediately after the preceding word thus: highwa y, not highwa y , The comma, however, is not needed. The correct word is "on", and you need this: On a highway vehicles usually drive very fast.

  • Technically, none of them is correct.

  • The correct word is "on", and you need this: On a highway vehicles usually drive very fast.
  • Even this, though, is inverted from the more usual word order: Vehicles usually drive very fast on a highway.
  • This is the most idiomatic form of your statement.
