Few cars stop here, but they all go into Germany. In that way it is easy to get a lift. Main direction is, Leer, Oldenburg, Bremen, Hannover.―Anonymous

Not that many cars here, but then again there was almost nobody on the highway neither. I do believe this is a good spot because it's already in Germany so cheaper fuel. We decided to hitch cars on the highway too, but managed to get a ride to Zgorzelec (PL) from the gas station after a little over half an hour.―Koendev

Difficult to hitchhike. Lots of hitchhikers, you will usually meet someone, you need luck beacause traffic is small and cars are usually going somewhere in near.―Propek

Not many cars, most are locals. It is possible to get to the Netherlands but I was told the on northern motorway entry it's easier since many Dutch people go there for shopping (not on Sunday though).―Anonymous

I would never stop here on purpose. Minimal traffic and none to Netherland. If you are stuck here, I would rather try to reach the Port of Groningen gas station 5 km away passing through Bunde town―Phidias81
