Indeed very good spot, space for cars on a parking right after, but most of all there can be a lot of traffic, so cars are very slow.Gives you enough time to charm them with smiles ;)

Great spot, people see you from afar. If there are no cars in the parking spot for dropping of goods you are good. Someone stopped when i put the sign up instantly.―Tijmen

Duane place for trucks.Lots of trucks going up to Germany!You can get there after border check on Switzerland side (50m N) to a trap that leads you down under the highway. There jump fast over the street and you see the trucks!―Anonymous

This is a fantastic place to be generally, it's easy to talk to hundreds of lorry driver in a short span of time since all drivers have to get off their lorry and do something with some of their documents.The downside is that after 20mins a civil servant came up to me and told me to leave. After some negotiation I was allowed another 20mins before I would have to leave. So do try to stay out of sight (as in behind the lorries).

My friend and I didn't have much luck here. There wasn't enough traffic through the gas station and not speaking italian was a HUGE disadvantage.―Anonymous

No place for cars to stop but it seems to be the only logical place. It's in front of highway sign and everything earlier is just local streets with it's usual city traffic.―Chaosu

The toll post between Italy and Switzerland. Steady flow of slow traffic and plenty of place for cars to stop. No trucks though.Tried this on an early Sunday morning coming from Italy to SUI, wait time 1h15. I don't understand why someone gave it a red "senseless" rating.

after 5 minutes I and my girlfriend were going on petrol station after Lugano. Not best place to wait with sign, but good to ask people. First couple I asked took us―Anonymous

we waited 20 minutes and got a ride to mendrisio, from a girl who often picks up hitchhikers.however, if you get a short ride, i would recommend declining and staying in this spot.

We got a ride pretty fast (a traffic jam before the border) to Switzerland from a Swiss guy (the only Swiss ever that has given us a ride)... You can ask at the gas station AND still have the sign/thumb up―Thejourneyramino
