There is a small lane to pullover.If you find yourself here, You will only see local traffic.
Or cars going to Biel.
Take a ride with one of those cars. Go to the gas station "Grauholz" in Ittigen, It is the biggest rest stop / "raststätte".
From there you can Hitchike to Basel,Biel and Zürich easily.
If you cross the autobahn, which is possible by walking the overhead bridge.
You can go south (Fribourg, Lausanne...) from the otherside easily.

Many people going to Bern, okay spot to go to the north. Talk to people, they might be able to take you in the right direction even if they go to the east or west.―Stevenheinen

It is very good spot on working days to go direction to Geneva or Lausanne. However on Saturday I was waiting for 3 hours any car to this direction and it never came. 4 cars stoped for me and were ready to take me to the mountains, but I skipped it hoping to get direct ar to Geneva. Then two guys approached me and offered a ride to Mont Blanc and I couldn't resist :)―estasbien

Not so many cars stops here, but it is possible to get a ride by asking people on a parking. I got a ride to a petrol station next to Bern, but you can ask people to bring you to a next petrol station in Prateln on A2/A3.―estasbien

There is the only place where cars can stop and also the traffic is moving slow. I stood there with a sign and I’ve got a ride to Bern in 8 minutes.―Anonymous
