many cars pass by but couldn't get a lift to a5; good thing there is a train station two minutes away

We wanted to walk to the train station and start hitching there, but then we asked a man who just parked here and was willing to take us down south. He was headed further east from the spot he dropped us off

Good stuff. Got picked up by two people who fed me the absolute best Syrian food. 10/10 would recommend.

There's not really space to stop which is a little dangerous. But you'll always find some brave people willing to block off the motorway for you :)

Took us a long time. A lot of traffic but most had their car full of stuff or people so they couldn't take us to the border or beyond.

We were very lucky that a couple could take us all the way to Frankfurt, there we needed to go south and they were going east

I tried to get to the A3 but no luck at all. It was Tuesday morning and not that many cars passed by. The petrol station also wasn’t great. I walked to Darmstadt-wixhausen and took the train to Weiskirchen for a better spot at the A3.

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).

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

Very few cars on a Monday evening.

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.

Really few people on a Sunday afternoon. I was also dropped here although the person said he would go to Frankfurt. I managed to ask someone to take me to the next station, he would have taken me to Frankfurt city but I stilled hoped to get further.

I had just come out of the previous car and wanted to orient myself when a person in a sports car asked me where I want to go. He took me until close to Frankfurt.

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

Like most places, no cars between 03:00-06:00. We slept in a tent and the first people we asked at 07:00 took us north of Hannover

I wanted to go north-west on the A3, so I should have stopped 1 gas station earlier. Than decided to take a ride to FF airport, but in hindsight I think I should have tried to get to Weiskirchen and cross there...
