Spot worked great after unsuccesfully waiting for ~1.5hrs at the spot recommended by the utrecht page (52.0802, 5.0870)

Stood in front of the highway sign

awesome spot, lots of traffic, barely any wait time and the guy who took me was super chill and even took a detour to bring me to Utrecht Centrum.

Police send me away within 5 minutes. Not allowed to stand on hard shoulder on on-ramp he said

Hard shoulder next to on ramp. Cars see you last minute because of bended road. Worked anyway.

This is the official hitch hike spot (sign on pole). Space for cars to stop. Lots of traffic. Always good to get direction east. I used sign Amersfoort.

Hard shoulder next to on ramp. I used sign Amersfoort, but accepted lift to Utrecht. 3 police cars passed by, none bothered to stop.

Really nice spot, real visible and as someone said, lot of space for cars to stop. But be careful, you’re practically on a highway.

Friendly guy stops right in the middle of the street, I was also red light so he didn’t care much (although, people were honking). Took me straight to Utrecht. Thank you!

Go up the grassy bit onto the hard shoulder of the on ramp, multiple people stopped and asked where they could take me.

Took me a whole of five minutes to find a ride all the way to Utrecht (or close anyway since I needed to get further). Very good spot.

Literally got from one car into the next. Ride took me to near Gouda (was asking for the direction of Leiden)

My final hike in this trip: A very nice Holland man came up to me (oh magic) and offered me the lift to Haag, but I prefered waiting a lift to Amsterdan, and he changed his route and dropped me at Bussum, and I blackrode the train to central station in the late afternoon, guessed everybody was offwork, sorry)... and there is wifi here
