Small SA/PA and not a lot of traffic. I waited around 30min before gfetting picked up by a guy. Lots of motorcycles but no spare helmets. Try tp get to the later station instead of stopping here.―GermanyToIndia

Busy station (weekday morning) and you can take the Metro to the closby station. A couple picked me up after waiting for around 20 minutes. I used a sign with kanji.―GermanyToIndia

Walked form the nearest station in theory it's not a bad place to hitch out from headed west, I flew a sign until a bus driver with an empty bus smoki g a cigarette asked me if hamamatsu would be good enough , and I ended up there where granted I couldnt get a ride before sundown , but still it resulted in a nice week of beach bumming before I went back to tokyo. There is a cart with cardboard behind the convenience store you can use to make a sign. For best results stand on the manhole cover towards the exit lanes closest to the station as people with animals or smokers will often Inquire upon your situation as was my case.―Stretch

Not very accessable but a good location to get dropped off and catch another ride. Good infrastructure, small enough to be seen from the whole parking area and enough traffic to get picked up fast.―LostBoi

Big service area with good infrastructure. I used it to get to Nagoya. Quite a big distance on foot from the nearest station but once you are there it's easily accessible from the north side, where you find stairs that lead to the small park of the service area. Traffic wasn't that much but decent enough to get picked up quite fast. At least on Tuesday afternoon.―LostBoi
