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

There are a lot of trucks unloading here in the morning - I just asked the drivers and the third one took me to the next gasstation on the highway. Probably only works in the mornings though―Anonymous

Really hard to get anywhere else than the airport - finally someone took me to St Augustine from where I caught a hitch onto the highway―Anonymous

Stood at the end with a sign, a lot of cars park near the end so you can ask around and use the sign or a thumb at the same time. After 30 minutes a turkish guy took me to a gas station after Frankfurt. Pretty good and lots of traffic.―stepanfoj

I stood at the roundabout on the end. There was a lot of traffic. Had a sign saying Köln. Then a guy took me past it to a station in the direction of Frankfurt. Good spot. You can get here by bus from Aachen very easily, the bus station is right next to the station.―stepanfoj

Excellent rest-area and petrolstation with a bridge connecting both sides. Great for hitching onto the A3, into both directions. Siegburg main trainstation with connections to Bonn (20 minutes) is half an hour walk.―Anonymous

Can confirm. Went to the south once. Had to wait 1 hour, but only because many stuffed tourist cars. another time about 30 (?) minutes, but definately OK. Much traffic in both directions.―Anonymous

Can confirm that. If you want to go to the A4 (Aachen) direction Netherlands or Belgium it's handy to use a sign for "Aachen", most of cars go to Köln or Ruhrgebiet―Anonymous

Finding rides towards A4/Aachen or A61/Monchengladbach/Venlo is harder in my experience as most drivers go further on A3 or into Koln or Ruhrgebiet.―Fverhart

got dropped here on a saturday late afternoon, there was almost no traffic. Was very lucky with a Polish guy in a van who gave me a lift close to Frankfurt.―Adamiksen

ps, careful hitching to this rest stop, I mistakedly help up a board for Siegburg Bahnhof and got dropped off at the station about 3-4km away, a irritating walk through the town. I quickly learned that German word and also Raststätte means rest stop.―Gareth SA

This place for whatever reason gave me no luck at all. I got there late and camped overnight, the next day it was raining. In the morning (from 8am til 12.30) mostly business men, or older couples were passing by, and even the truck drivers I asked informed me they were turning of to a depo before the next stn on A3. Frustrated I crossed the bridge and got a ride North in 20mins―Anonymous
