(on the Dover -> Calais ferry) we paid £30 and joined the ferry as foot passengers. there were lots of people driving off the ferry. we were 3 people and did not find a lift for all of us, but split into 2 and 1, and both groups found lifts to London. we asked almost everyone on the ferry and found 2-3 offers.―Alifeee

Had been waiting outside petrol station for a couple hours before we realised that 90% of the traffic was entering not leaving the services. Switched spots and got offered a few lifts until eventually we got one into london within half an hour―ActingOutColours

Either this is an excellent spot, it I just had excellent luck. But I waited five minutes, and the second car already stopped, and I got a ride all the way to Leeds. I had a sign saying "A1 - North".―mossenmoons

REDBRIDGE ROUNDABOUT A12 towards Chelmsford, Colchester and Ipswich. Big parking space, with lots of traffic going by. Might take a few rides to get out of London from here, but a great starting point and it's easily accessible by tube (Redbridge station).―Anonymous

It's worked a few times, but there are far better spots to get out of London on the A12. Try Redbridge roundabout further down.―Anonymous

I have used this point spoted by Lnx. I got a lift here in 10 minutes, but I didnt find it very save. To arrive to this point, I took the underground to henton central, then I walked to the place (15 minutes). In the bus stop Tilling Road, 2 minutes far from the spot, the buses number 112, 142, 182, 232, 266, 611. You can catch a bus rather than the underground. This place is hard to find if you dont have a London city map with you.―Anonymous

The junction is very large. Depending on where you want to go, it may or may not be easy to get a lift from the service station. If you want the A1 North, it will be difficult. The traffic around the junction and on the exit roads is moving too fast to safely hitch. Maybe try these if there's a traffic jam―Anonymous

London Gateway services. Whether or not this is a good space depends on where you're coming from. If you have just started your trip out of London going north then avoid this spot if possible. It's so close to London that people are unlikely to stop here - their journey has only just begun so why stop. Staples Corner is probably a better bet.―Anonymous

There is a round about with stop lights. On this corner you will find a McDonalds. There are some cars coming from here from the centre of London to the A12/11.Try it out and let me know

another place to get onto the m1 north - there's a traffic light there. 2 guys got away in about 15 minutes, after dark.―Anonymous

People were very distrustful, but ok, it was after dark and we were two guys. Generally, you should be okay because there's quite a lot of people to ask.―Anonymous
