I waited this only because I was ambitious and tried to get a straight ride to Helsinki so declined three offers to get to Jyvaskyla but took a fourth. And the lady took me even past the town to get started forward much easier. Good place slow traffic but a bit akward for drivers because they are turning but its fine there is plenty of space.―kiausiniuvagis

Two people. Spot seems favourable, most likely just had bad luck. Not too bad a wait with the gas station nearby.―hiidenhuora

Two people. Not too bad a place to get out of Jyväskylä. Good enough space for cars to stop.―hiidenhuora

Trucks driving past with a high speed, cops asked us to move appr. 20m farther from the spot right after the curve.Busy traffic but not that practical spot. At first the driver who took us wanted to take us just to a better spot, but ended up giving more than 50km ride and bought us snacks.

A great one, a guy got me to Pihtipudas. Large bus station, cars going slowly and north. There is a gas station nearby if you need something.―martih

High speeds (100km/h) but good visibility and a short bus stop for people to stop. Not ideal though.―VeikkaK

On the way north, waited with an Oulu sign. Got a short-ish ride to ABC Kirvaskangas relatively quickly. Not a perfect spot for cars to stop, but good enough. Walkable from the city center.―Uri

We were on the way north to Oulu. The first person we asked offered to take us 300km most of the way there to Kempele.―Uri

The road is under construction so the exact spot might change but now the speeds were very slow and I got a ride even before I started hitchhiking since my sign was visible. Going north.―VeikkaK

Plenty of room to pull over and plenty of cars but seems to be mostly going to just Jyväskylä.―VeikkaK

Got a lucky ride to Lapland after an hour, good spot, large gas station to rest and charge if hitching is slow too.―Anonymous
