I was on my way to Oslo. I tried three different spots here. First I was standing at the exit of the gas station. There's very little traffic there. Then I walked a bit to right before the highway sign. There it's hard to stop for cars, cause they're going quite fast. Also, to get there you have to walk past a camera. I thought ah who cares it's just a camera. ... They care. I ended up camping in the woods next to the road there and for about half an hour there was like a surveillance drone circling above my tent. Probably because that camera spotted me or saw me cross the highway or something. Just don't go near there.The next day, I stood by the main road right in front of the entrance to the gas station. Asked for some cardboard at the gas station and made a big OSLO sign. The second car that came by stopped on the entrance lane and took me to Oslo.

Good spot for going to the E16. It's legal and there's space to stop, and you know that everyone driving there will take the E16. You can ask any driver going West to drop you off there. I got a ride to Hønefoss there. Didn't use a sign.―Bigworldsmallsarah

I was here on a summer Sunday around 7 in the morning and there was maybe one car every 5 minutes. I had a sign with Hønefoss and later with E16, but in the end I was lucky to get a ride to Sandvika. I feel like there should be more traffic at other times of the day though? Might be worth trying. And the gas station there gave me cardboard and has a free toilet :).―Bigworldsmallsarah

lonnnnng spot ahahaha lot of traffic but not that much of ppl going to sweden (like stockholm)
if ur trying to get to stockholm you’ll have to be very patient, most of the people take the train or plane to get there
hopefully a guy arrived 2h after under rain and dropped me to arjang (100km from oslo)
good luck but the spot if perfect, a lot of space for cars to stop

not the best ever to get out of the city but it works after 1h30luckily there was that country festival so there were a lot of ppl
> recommend to place yourself after the gas station (specifically on the spot that i have add), if u want to get to oslo !
i finally found a direct ride but you also need to have a sign, cars gets a bit faster but there are place for them to stop
good luck 😌

9:20am on a tuesday, most cars are going south so not much luck. There is a resting area for cars and trucks where you can go and ask them. There is a truck gas pump and you can ask there too when you see one. Otherwise you just ask every car that stops for gas/charging/coffee...At lunch there's a burger king so you can move there at some point in the morning.
After more than 2 hours a truck driver that was parked brought me straight to copenaghen (and gave me food, cola, snacks, candy, coffee, cigarettes and anything you could imagine)
If you get stuck here I think you're screwed so be careful at what time you reach it.

Got a direct ride to Oslo as a M/F couple with a sign after an hour. A fair amount of German and Norwegian cars, although ultimately a Swedish/Icelandic couple took us. Beware that in summer, there's no shade and you'll be burning.―Anonymous

Good spot first 15 minutes I held a sign. A few people stopped mainly taxi drivers willing to take me a short distance for free but with a thumb was much better. One guy went out of his way to drive me to my destination so I was quite lucky but a good spot nonetheless to get out of Oslo.―SunnySupertramp

Very good spot relative to the place and time. 10ish am on a thursday, many cars, most are going south though. Thankfully two cars were going to Oslo but i just had to wait for them to charge/finish sleeping. I went with a nice guy and his daughter who just charged their car here. There is a burger king for food and toilet and its decently busy place to ask. People were all friendly and helpful.―SunnySupertramp

Bus stop on the on-ramp, loads of space to stop and traffic going quite slow after the roundabout―Wienerpolser

A good spot with lots of cars going to both directions from the ramp. Waited for a while, but all in all a fine spot―Saarpe3

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
