One male 40+, no sign, one big backpack, a sunny day. On my way from Budapest to Arad in Romania (successful).A very good spot. Legal coz it not a highway yet. Others already described this spot. I only add that place is a bit uphill so lorry drivers may not be keen on stopping here. A 100 meters closer to the center there is a flat and long exit from the petrol station, but it's after a curve so visibility is limited. The choice is yours.
No shade, cars coming in waves due to the traffic lights a bit before.
After 15 minutes I got a ride to a petrol station 27 kms along the highway, from where quickly I got another lift.
The couple even forced a chocolate bar on me 😊

Very little traffic, most of it local. Probably better to ask here, but most won’t be going past Vac. I was thumbing with a sign (‘E77 - Krakow) and had a couple of offers that far or nearer until a woman heading to the border with Slovakia eventually took me. Station bathroom is paid or with purchase. Truckers were mostly there to take their pausa or going to a nearby warehouse.―Movethathoof

Maybe I had a bit of a bad luck but after over an hour someone stopped (he said he made an U turn just to come back and pick me up lol) so ig sometimes the cars go a bit fast, there are 3 lanes, there s a traffic light right before this spot (large bus station, enough room to stop) but when nobody is crossing the light is always green, so it can happen that traffic is fast). Anyways this guys took me to just before Hatvan where there is a very good spot to catch longer rides going north. I was going to Kosice, held a Miskolc sign. Not great not terrible. I think you have to get a ride even if it takes a while. Once on the E71 it s easy. No shadow tho.―PolyglotAbroadYT

It’s not really a spot I would recommend. Quiet little traffic and no good spot to stand or hang around. I decided for the Gasstation at the beginning of the stop. Sitting/ standing next to the entrance. Quiet frustrating to wait 4h. Was about to give up but then a lovely Hungarian Coupple took me all the way to Budapest.If your there: don’t give up! Talk to people and make a sign. Gasstation is open 24h. To stand at the entrance or exit didn’t work for me, but try it. Started at 13:00 with nearly no cars at the Gasstation. Got picked up at 17:00 with more traffic coming.

Cars pass slowly and there is some grass to sit. No shade. After 30min I got picked up (after changing my sign to ‚25km M5‘ instead of Serbia). Still got 200km. I‘d recommend this spot over the one below.―GermanyToIndia

There is good space, truck drivers can see u when stop for chech. Also there is space for car drivers to stop. 2 Ukrainian guys take me a ride to Budapest center. Trafic is not really insane.―Trio525

Difficult to get a ride to Budapest. Probably best to look for Slovak plates and get a ride to “ASFINAG Raststation Göttlesbrunn”. There you’ll see more Hungarian plates.―spinach3

Not a lot of room for cars to stop but traffic not intense so ok. Got a lift to Budapest after using the thumb for 3 minutes! Thanks Olshi. You can also try to get closer to the highway from here I guess. Cheers guy―cavalierrustique

Thumbing didn't work here. So we tried to ask around. Though this is tough as a non-Hungarian speaker. But that worked for us―LJIsTooShort

Within 30 minutes we hitchhiked a man who drove us straight to Budapest. Many cars are heading this way towards Hungary. Heavy traffic.―Simi
