Perfect place to go far north, rejected lots of cars going to Frankfurt, Kassel... Waited at the end of the station, where both the people from the gas station and the food court came. I was trying to go towards Stuttgart so had a sign for it, took a while but eventually got a truck. Waited―friki

There's space for the cars to stop at the bus stop, lots of traffic any time of the day, was trying to go north on the A5 so got a sign for Karlsruhe.―friki

always tricky to hitchhike on a highway, but this spot turned out to be super useful and successful, coming from Strasbourg and wanting to go south to Switzerland. cars have room to stop (only) on the left hand side, and you can get a ride to any gas station or parking/rest place further on the highway.i got there by being droped on the previous highway exit, and walking along the fields, coming up to the highway right at the beginning of the exit lane.

I wanted to go to Heidelberg. It was already dark and it was Saturday... A group of several polish truck drivers were sleeping there until Monday, going back to Poland. Asked around for about 1.5 hours, almost no traffic, so I decided to settle for a ride to Karlsruhe and catching a train to Heidelberg. The spot should be good, but my timing and luck were bad.―Cabrita4

Wouldn’t recommend this place not a lot of traffic. Been there a couple of times and the last time I left by train to the next gas station, just 20min by train. Way better place―Anonymous

Not really a good spot, but mutch better than Aral gas station or standard hitching. Worked better here than traditional hitch, people stop on the crossroads.―martih

Not a great spot, good enough to go to Strasbourg. Not much traffic but enough people go to the gas station.―Tijmen

Asking around should work, in my case I was pretty unlucky with the weather and full cars. Eventually decided to sign at the on-ramp and was got a ride to Heidelberg within five minutes.―Arphile

Gonna go against consensus here. Almost all cars are local traffic and the ones that aren’t are usually going to Offenburg. I waited close to three hours with my sign saying Karlsruhe-Heidelberg before a French guy I talked to at the station took me to the autobahn.―Arphile

Found a trucker to take me east onto the A8 within 15 minutes.The ride itself wasn't great as he took a 45 min detour to get some fuel and then got stuck in a traffic jam for 2 hours, but in the end we got to Sindelfinger Wald.

If you can avoid this spot, do it. Many people stay in the vicinity.That said, there's lots of space to pull over at the bus stop, and you'll find somebody eventually.
