Ok, this was not great spot south, if you are heading south I would discourage you from going here, but it was kinda nice spot towards Belgium. Be aware a lot of migrants are lurking around after dark, we had two of them jump on top of our truck and drove them to Belgium (they were not happy about that and banged on our roof). It was definitely one of my crazier stories, but it was kinda fun. Just to be aware of that. (Normally I would sleep around here, but I would never sleep in this place, it was not safe, therefore I went back north to Belgium)

I got lucky. The first car driving by took me and got me near Brussels. This spot looked promising, was large, and had slow cars for hitchhiking west. But maybe I was just lucky.

This is a great spot, but be aware, cars are going in all directions, so you really need to know your direction and major cities in that direction. A car stopped, and the guys told me that they were going to Torhout. I asked whether it was in the direction of Brussels, and they confirmed. But after I realized I had made a semi-voluntary ride to Torhout.

I stood here, and a guy picked me up after a few minutes, stopped and told me this wasn't a great place, and brought me to a better one. There is a large space to stop and a decent amount of traffic.

A good, safe spot for Brugge or Ghent. Cars can see you clearly, and they can safely stop at the local bus stop. It is still kinda the city centre, so having a sign would be advised, but this road is still one of the main ways for cars to get out of the city; therefore, I think it is pretty good.

Very good spot, there is space to stop and the cars are going a reasonable speed. I did get stopped by the police while i was walking to the spot. In the end they did tell me it is okay to hitchhike there, so no problems.

Good for direction Oostende, Dunkerque, Calais.
Put Oostende on a sign, so you can get a ride at least to the next service area in Jabbeke.

This is most of the time my startingpoint if I go for long distances. You can go anywhere here (starting with direction 'Gent', 'Torhout' or some place near the sea). People see you from a distance and have some space to pull over.

Great spot if you want to go out of Bruges. Just put up a sign that says '4km' and ask if they go to 'Oostkamp', and if they could drop you off near the highway (E40). Even by night it's great!
