I think location is generally good, especially going south (I was going East). Lots of traffic on a Wednesday at 4:00 pm. I was standing in the bus lane near traffic. The bus comes infrequently when I was there so it should be fine, just be careful since traffic is going fast. Giving it 3 stars because my experience went a bit rough. First hour had a sign that said “Ost” (East) and looked like a mess, it didn’t work. Changed my sign to “A3 Wurzberg” and cleaned up a bit, had 3 cars stopped and finally had one take me to a service station (better loco for going east).

Worked asking around, but there is also a decent spot for sign. Big parking lot. We were just trying to go north and ended up with a ride all the way to Hamburg. A lot of people in the late afternoon/evening when we were there.

Asking around here works well as it is a big gas station. Lots of international traffic. We were trying to get as for north as possible

Almost 3 hours of waiting with sign “süd a3, a5” no one stopped, switched for a sign darmstadt and still almost half an hour until a nice pair took me just for fun there cause they felt sorry, so no i dont recommend this spot

We Were hitchhiking to the North on a Sunday morning. Incredibly we found someone after 50 min to Rotterdam all the way to our destination in the Netherlands.

It worked very good.
We talked to some people and someone took us to Hamburg.
Even over us a place to sleep if we wanted which we gladly accepted.
It was a very nice experience!

I stood there for almost an hour with a sign saying Köln and Essen on Monday at 11. many cars passed by but the vibe was not great. Frankfurt is a banker city and the people gave me weird looks. However one van stopped after 20 minutes, they were going to Hannover though. After a while a guy driving to Bochum (city right next to Essen) took me along and we had a great ride :)

It was getting dark so I felt like my chances were getting pretty low. Quite some people ignored me when I came up to them, the vibe of the place doesn’t really help being there with a cardboard. I wanted to go to cologne but went to Frankfurt airport instead and stayed in the city for the night.

Pretty good to go south out of Frankfurt. There’s a lot of space for cars to stop right before the entrance to the gasstation. Stood there with a sign „Darmstadt“ and eventually someone took me there. Asking around the gasstation didn’t work for me here as most people stayed in Frankfurt

A lot of people going to Frankfurt, also you can cross the highway via a bridge and go north

First day noone going south, only Frankfurt or Frankfurt airport. Next day we had a sign saying A5 SOUTH wich was very helpful and got picked up in 20-30 minutes, and drove close to Landau. Got dropped of at gas station near Edesheim. 20 minute walk there, and a store, so you can buy food etc.

Really good for Frankfurt or shorter rides, unfortunatelly for us we needed south and desperatly needed to get on A5, when super sweet young lady stopped and drove us to a bigger gas station right on A5

Early rainy Monday morning, people were cranky and not many. Should be better later in the day though. Got a ride to the next bigger station. Spent the night hanging between two trees in the woods here (beautiful and not transited).

My new technique strikes again! (Monday morning solo female). Sign in hand (Freiburg, maybe Basel would have been better sign though), walking around looking lost, for a place to hitch, immediately got offered a ride to Basel. Lots of Swiss cars, some southern German, not many French.

Alia netradicia veturo. Dum mi serĉis bonan lokon ĉe la elirejo, kie estus spaco por aŭtoj halti, mi fine marŝis pli antaŭen, kaj mi pensas, ke ĉi tio eble estas la plej bona loko, ĉar antaŭe ne estas tia kaj poste ĝi fariĝas malfacila. Kelkajn cent metrojn pluen, post la kurbo, estas ankaŭ bona loko tuj post granda domo, sed mi ne scias, ĉu ĝi estas pli bona pro la rapideco.

La ulo lasis min ĉe ĉi tiu granda butikcentro (kie mi bone mangxis vegane) kie li diris, ke estas multe da BlaBlaCar-kulturo kaj ke, depende de la persono, li eble donos al mi senpagan veturon aŭ rabatoa veturon al Dresdeno aŭ eĉ pli frue. Sed kompreneble, mi ne atendis.

Ĉi tiu regiono estas tre bela, tre trankvila, kaj facile oni povas petveturi ĉirkaŭe.

A guy and a girl without a sign on a Friday afternoon. Two cars stopped in 20 min, and the second one went south of Hannover. The spot at the end of the station is quite good for cars to stop.
