Good spot to go to Bursa. There are the cars that comes from the ferry wave by wave but none of them stopped. I was taken by one of the truck from the truck agency just after the toll station. He was going to Bursa but I was going to Eskisehir so I asked him to drop me in a gas station.―cavalierrustique

It was a Sunday so most probably that's why it took so long : every car was full ! And I did not get too much attention. I don't understand how the others "talked to truck driver" because truck drivers just go to the toll station and pass. It's not a parking or something. However a lot of cars are parked but again full most of the time. I accepted to get a ride in the other side of the ferry, was a good decision. Thanks Seyfullah!―cavalierrustique

Good spot to go East. I was offered a ride easily to Ankara but I refused because my goal was Eskisehir/Bursa. Had a lift to Gebze after 40mn to take the boat BUT most of the drivers don't go to the ferry ⛴️ so they will just let you in a random place in Gebze and you might have to walk 1 hour to go there.―cavalierrustique

-To Izmir / Ferry Eskihisar -Took the train from Istanbul to Gebze and walked up to the road. Stood just behind the entrance and directly got a ride to the ferry in Ehiskisar.
Visibility is not too good.

Mi nur volis eliri de tia freneza, bordela, kaosa loko. Iomete poste la enirado aĵ la aŭtovojo estas iomete pli bona.bmi ackeptis veni tie post 3 invitoj ekde la granda benzinstacio en Istanbul. Sed mi kredas ke vi povas provi iomete plu iomete pli malproksime. Ĉi tie vendredo posttagmezi estas tro multa. Mi havis bonŝanson.―Jurobola

En mia vojaĝo al Japanio senhalti, Mi provis dum preskaŭ 2 horaj uzante la ŝildon Bolu/Ankara, inkluzive en la aŭtovojo dum kekaj minutoj, unofoje ke ĝi estis malrapida ĉar la trafikŝtopiĝo, sed mi nur estis invitita al Gebze kelkaj fojo. Mi ke kredas ke estas la plej bona. Sed vendredo postagmezo estas tre freneza kaj kaosa. Eble se tie ne fluas vi povas akepti kaj iri a la parkejo antaŭen. Sed Gebze estas nerekomendita. Sorry.―Jurobola

Tried with a sign for Bolu for a while, which didn't work but without the sign I quickly got a ride close to İzmit/Kocaeli as well as a free meal.―Suip

This is the best place to HH through south from Istanbul. Most of the cars and trucks are taking the ferry from Eskihisar and there is only one road passing through here so very likely to get on in half an our ...―Anonymous

If you arrived here, from Istanbul, it is probably because you followed what it was told on the wiki page (Train to Gebze, 1,5TL). This is not a really good place to hh. It seems like a motorway, but it's not. Nothing is lost : I would advice to take a minibus to the O4 Motorway, about 4km away. There you will probably have more chances, as evryone going east takes this road.―Anonymous
