The second car we asked agreed to take me and my girlfriend to Oslo. Very good spot, lot of traffic.―Anonymous

Great spot to head towards Oslo! There's not much space for drivers to pull over, but it's wide enough for them to pull to the side and stop. It's also beneficial that there is a roundabout and drivers go slower and can take their time to think about picking you up when they see you.―Passports

Way too fast from the highway, not very visible though a good place to stop. Had to buy a truck driver a drink to get a ride to someplace better―Bigdeidiot

One male 40+, with a sign "Oslo", one big and one small backpacks, sunny and warm day. Going to Oslo.A bus stop, good visibility and enough space even for a lorry to stop. Much closer there is a petrol station, but it's on a curve with almost no space to stop, so I think this place is better and worth the extra 20 minutes walk.
I was very luck this time. I waited only 10 minutes and I got a ride straight to the Oslo centre.

One male 40+, with a sign "Stockholm", one big and one small backpacks, rainy day.A bus stop, good visibility and enough space even for a lorry to stop. Not very busy road, a few cars per minut.
I waited only 20 minutes. The fact that I was wearing a t-shirt with a big Polish emblem helped me loooads. The lorry driver who stopy was Polish. He took me to the border, where I quicky got a ride from an anothy Polish truck driver to Stockholm. I'm not sure how long I'd have to wait if I didn't have the t-shirt.
The place is a bit far from the Oslo centre, but about half an hour walk is a decent size park-forest where I pitched a tent for a night.

Maybe not the best spot, but drivers certainly have a lot of visibility and space to stop, even if they’re probably Norwegian and driving a bit too fast to notice - bring a big sign.―Bigdeidiot

Still a great spot, got a ride with a guy transporting a boat to Telemark (?). Don’t mind my 50min wait time - I’m a scruffy looking guy so this place is as good as they come for me. I really recommend it for going Trondheim til Oslo.―Bigdeidiot

A guy and a girl on a Wednesday afternoon without a sign. There's a bus stop for cars to stop, but cars go a little fast. We were taken to the gas station of Vik.―JumpingRabbit

A guy and a girl on a Wednesday at noon with a small arrow sign. It's hard to get to this spot, you have to get to the other side of the road, in the gas station by bus and foot before crossing to the other side.It looks like a bad spot from afar, but is in fact very nice, with lot of place to stop and cars going slowly before the roundabout.

A guy and a girl with a small sign on a Sunday at noon. This spot is quite good. Two people stopped in 20min, and the third one took us South of Oslo and offered us lunch !―JumpingRabbit

Not a bad spot, plenty of cars, but most of them going short distance. Still, it's on the main road north towards Hamar and you can get there easily by public transport (stop Trosterudkrysset).―lelian

Big space on the side for cars to stop, all traffic towards Sweden going through. Also a tiny little cafe.―friki

Agree with the other review. Lots of cars going out of the highway, nobody going in direction Sweden. Got a ride of a local to a bit further, in a place where cars could stop on the side of the road.―friki

Not much space to stop, was just trying to get in the E18. Not good for getting in the E6 I think.―friki

Should be pretty decent spot for Oslo, not that great for beyond. Not that many cars stopping at the gas station, but decent flow in the bus stop. Got a ride fast, someone who was going to the airport, so left us on a gas station in the ring road.―friki

Good visibility, and space to stop.―roadlifehacks

The spot itself is ok but we gave up after 1h and walked to the next onramp further south. Maybe a 10km sign is a good idea to get at least to one of the better spots.―roadlifehacks

Rest area. We thumped from the point where the entry lane starts. Cars rather fast but good visibility and entry round is pretty long thus easy for cars to pull over.―roadlifehacks
