Seems good. We got picked up in 3 minutes by people going to Derby. Seems like a lot of traffic is heading onto the M1 from here.―Alifeee

I've hitched from here twice, both southbound across the M42 to M5. The first time we got stuck for several hours and had to start approaching people as night was drawing in. We made it eventually. The second time I got a quick pickup here BUT misheard the guy and got dropped halfway along M42. Bad move - got really stuck. In my experience M42 south is quite sticky so try to do it in one ride if at all possible. If you're just heading down the M1 though, you'll be fine from here.―Anonymous

Direction Burton-on-Trent / Lichfield / Birmingham. A lot of cars and trucks, mostly going fast but thanks to high traffic they often slow down. Very visible spot.―Anonymous

I've tried this spot twice and both times been picked up in around 20-30 minutes. You have traffic coming from two directions with a good spot for them to pull in (bus stop). Lots of people heading to join the M1 going south on this road.―Anonymous
