It's a bit of an awkward place to stop, but it's the countryside so people are nice and patient. Also, there's a nice forest to camp next to the highway there. Rainbow accessible but very low visibility.―Bigworldsmallsarah

First we tried the gas station in the back, but it was dead. (Sunday evening) I think no one wants to tank in Switzerland when Germany is so close. Then we tried asking the police if we could stand at the border post, since the cars go so nice and slow. They told us no. Bastards. Anyway. Then we switched between asking people in the McD parking lot and flagging down cars from the highway to enter into the parking lot (seems very impossible but we didn't have much other options.) in the end the asking at the parking lot worked. During the day it's probably a lot easier, but it's not a nice place to be stuck at night. Also the McD closes at 22.―Bigworldsmallsarah

It's not fantastic, but it's fairly easy to stop and people go slowly. Many city people who aren't going long distances. But they smile and wave kindly. I wanted to go north and had A5 on my sign. In the 20 minutes I was standing there 4 people stopped who were all going south on the A5. In the end I took a ride just to get out of the city and onto a A5 highway entrance.―Bigworldsmallsarah

waited a bit, not perfect because bus stop and lane for road 5 going south is seperated by exit ramp going somewhere.finally we got a ride 15 minutes south to some gas station. fair enough.―Papikow

Nice spot, dirt/gravel place where cars can stop and lot of traffic. Close to onramp to various directions (west, north, south) it was raining and we were cold so we agreed to get driven to Pirmasens (direction France) where we found shelter in a church―Stokars

Not much traffic, maybe i was lucky but i got a ride from a woman tavelling to Munich trying to avoid expensive French highways, at 6 am. There is shopping area with toilets near and nice foresty spots to camp 2 km north (bit noisy though due to highway)―Anonymous

Had no luck here to get a ride to Stuttgard even though it would be perfect for cars to see you and stop.―Fugii

Unsuccessful. It might not be a good spot to get a ride to the South. I did not find any to StrasbourgBut there are many cars and good space for a car to stop for you, which is a bus station. Cars come from a side road as well.

The bus station 'Beiertheim West' makes a good hitchihking spot for direction south, but shoud also work for East (Stuttgart) or West (Landau). Reachable by bus no. 062, but also by tram no. 2 to 'Welfenstraße' or by walking from the main station into 'Ebertstraße' (10 Minutes'.―Anonymous
