[A38 EASTBOUND]It took a matter of seconds holding up a "DERBY :)" sign in order to get me a hitch there on a recent sunny weekday afternoon. This spot is a safe 1.9 mile walk from Lichfield Trent Valley Station, well connected to Birmingham and the West Coast Main Line. One thing to be wary of is that the layby is not long after the brow of a hill and traffic is moving quickly so it's advisable to stand closer to the exit of the layby so as to allow traffic the time to stop.

Stuck at this garage for four hours in the freezing cold. If you're going south on the M42, try to do it all in one go if you can, I can't explain why but I always find it real sticky. The caretaker/attendant guy at this garage was friendly, at least.―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

Cars on the road were going too fast to stop. Had to go around petrol station asking people for 20 minutes until someone was able to take me―ExtreamTrowser
