Didn’t take long before I had a lift to Brussels with a car full of Germans on their way to a Jason Derulo concert―Anonymous

The road to enter is strange, a lot of cars exiting the E40, not using the station then re-entering the E40. It’s not worth trying to stop them, they’re going too fast. We waited at the entrance to the service station, the exit is better as you can catch the cars as they’re leaving―Anonymous

Highly recommend. A decent sized land for cars to pull into. Plenty of curious looks at our sign. Seems good for north and east. One offer to Antwerp, we took the next car who got us to Lueven―Anonymous

Lots of people stop and ask where you want to go, I could even be choosey and wait until I found a lift directly to Brussels.―Anonymous

A guy and a girl on a Thursday at noon without a sign. I would say this spot is good even though people globally ignored us completely. A nice Polish guy helped us to get to Brussel while we were moving to test the best thumb spots.―JumpingRabbit

Walked here from Leuven, asked around, two of them were going to Brussels and the third one happened to be a couple living near London, so I got a ride from here through Eurotunnel all the way to north of London. And they ended up being worried that I will get stuck hitchhiking out of the London bubble, so they bought be a crazy expensive train ticket to Manchester, so I got to my friend’s place by the evening! ☺️―Anonymous

Very quickly made my way from Wageningen to Leuven. I got a straight ride with a Belgian couple to Leuven as they were heading to Charleroi.―Anonymous

Tough spot to get a lift. Best bet is to walk a bit down the road West(?) of NATO HQ. Also saw a bunch of Ukranian staff officers here. Go figure!―ZLB

Ideal cross-road for getting to 3 cities. Mechelen (E19), Lier and aarschot (E314)―Anonymous

Good spot to either hitch to Tienen or to the jonction with the N25 (at the Carrefour) that will lead to the E40. You might have to walk a bit to find a good spot where a car can pull over as this area is a side road parking―Anonymous

Motorway services, last one before Brussels Urban area (Shell) is a good spot to either ask for a ride that goes directly into Brussels or maybe even further―Anonymous
