It was hard to find a car going further than Sakarya but in the end I was taken until Düzce―rebski539

After I didn't manage to get a ride at the service station up at the Highway, I walked down here to get to Bolu. Cars are not very slow, but you will get a ride to Bolu after some time. From there I took a Minibus.―Suip

Got picked up by a Trucker to a very bad spot in front of Bolu. Had a sign to Bolu.―Suip

5 stars because turkish trucks here go a long distance.before you cross the border, there is a huge line of trucks. they won't speak english, so better smile and name bunch of cities, then mark their destinations down and after interviewing most of them, pick the best option for you.
i was solo, under heaviest rain in my life and got a 1500km lift across turkey. driver was super cool. border guards also helped me wait for the truck to cross and let me stay inside duty free area.
overall: good spot, but be ready to wait and probably come here in the morning, when all trucks from the rest area depart.

We arrived in Bolu around 4 a.m. and struggled to get any ride towards Istanbul until the next morning, when truck drivers started moving from the parking. It was very cold for an August night, and luckily there was a McDonald's where you could kill time―NikolozHitchhikes

We were going to Istanbul. didn't take us much to get a ride. Make sure to leave enough distance for trucks to stop, as the Istanbul lane is in the middle―NikolozHitchhikes
