Nice spot to get out of Duisburg towards the Netherlands, but I must say it was probably more about luck than a good spot. There's no shadow to stand in during summer btw, I got quite a sizzle on my neck after that half hour. The driver was really nice though, drove me all the way past Venlo, when he didn't even plan to cross into the Netherlands at all, and even bought me a coke and gave me some cardboard for a new sign―B5Scheuert

Very nice spot. Got there on a sunday morning at 7:30, it looked extremely empty, but after 30mins at the on-ramp with a "HANNOVER WEST" sign a nice man stopped trying to take me to Helmstedt, but right as I was putting my stuff into his backseat, another car stopped after seeing my sign, saying they'll take me to Duisburg. Obviously I took that offer. Very nice people, even the ones that didn't take me. Very nice experience for my very first time hitchhiking―B5Scheuert

Waited for a very long time in the hot hot hot sun. I can see how it can work on other days, but for us there’s was only Dutch people with very full cars going anywhere but where we were going. Ended up having to give up and get a ride to the nearest train station.―SnailsRUs

Good spot! I was asking around for an hour and in the end met a couple from the Netherlands while filling up my water. The took me all the way where I needed to go. I spent 6 hours travelling with them. Really perfect.I asked at the parking lot at the end, not at the gas station.

Usually a pretty good spot since people go all kinds of places. I asked around four 30mins until I found a ride to near Arnhem (the person was going to Zevenaar)―thebeekeeper

Very good spot to get out of Oberhausen onto A3 in the direction of Arnhem. There's a traffic light you can stand next to with a sign. Mine was super improvised and it still worked in like 5 minutes. Not super far but to Hünxe which I knew to be a good spot to continue. Was pretty late, so I might have been lucky with Feierabend traffic―thebeekeeper

Hünxe. Sometimes you get a ride to Ohligers Heide in 30 minutes, sometimes you wait 3 hours before accepting a ride into the HH'ers hell that is Ruhrpot. Today was the latter. Don't be like me. It's (at least) Ohligers Heide or nothing.―Chris9012

It looked like it was to busy for people to stop, but I still got a ride to Hünxe in 3 minutes.―Chris9012

Good spot! Even in the morning (07:30) loads of people, most of them going towards germany! Good spot for asking around, not so much for throwing up your thumb.―83105777978

Vere pluvis, mi sentis min senenergia, mi estis sub la markizino apud la enirejo de la benzinstacio. Kaj iu frenezulo daŭre prokrastis min, dirante, ke li prenos min dum pli ol horo kaj poste malaperis, do mi devis provi denove kaj denove ĝis mi finfine sukcesis. Kamiono prenis min, kaj ni iris malrapidete, almenaŭ mi alvenis.―Jurobola

Malgraŭ la konstanta pluvo, tre malmulte da trafiko, kaj preskaŭ noktiĝis, ĝi tamen funkciis.―Jurobola

Post atendado dum horo ĉe la benzinstacio, rigardante germanajn kamionistojn kverelantajn inter si pri io ajn, juna viro agrable veturigis min.―Jurobola

A57 Alpen, direction Nijmegen/Kleve. Much local traffic, try sign "Kleve" to get out relatively quick. From ramp 3 "Weeze" on there is much traffic for Nijmegen and further.―Anonymous

Quite a small gas station, but people head to all kind of directions. Found a ride to Arnhem in 30 minutes.―Anonymous
