It took me quite a while to find a truck going past London towards Dover, but with a bit of luck, you can do it easily. It's a big rest stop on both sides, so it's not hard to find a car going anywhere.―martih

I walked around and got a truck all the way to Leicester truck stop. This is a large rest stop and definitely a great place for going norh. Free toilets, Wi-Fi and power outlets. A lot of cars and even trucks.―martih

From here you can find a cars going in all directions. That makes it easier and harder at the same time. But it's still a great spot. I just needed to go for a better gas station near Luton on my way north. You can charge your phone inside and there are free toilets inside. As around and you will find someone.―martih

A great spot, but if you are heading towards Cambridge, be aware that you can use both the part going north and south. There is a bridge between them for easy crossing. I needed to go for Bedford, but got a ride just to the ramp and continued from there.―martih

I didn't get a lift here, but the passing Buddhist monks who live at the temple just through the trees told me they like to pick people up here when they can! Maybe even try your luck in the car park?―Anonymous

Roundabout just by the entrance to M1 junction 11. This is not a great spot by any means - I only used it by necessity. However, I guess if you're starting your journey in Luton this might be a decent spot. Alternatively try Flamstead services just off the motorway at junction 9. A trucker told me he thought that would be a better bet.―Anonymous

In theory these bus stops near the M1 make fantastic spots, long straight roads with heavy traffic slowing for roundabouts... But I had no luck in over two hours.―Anonymous

Very big service station, lots of cars, all heading for London. Also a bridge over the road, so you can switch lanes here (as I did, I arrived from the South with a lift which took me around London and took a lift back into the Northern part of London)―Anonymous

Nice spot, spent around 5min saturday early morning and got a ride to Oxford (so not exactly the main cars' target probably). Might have been luck, but on the other hand many cars were passing me.―Kub

Great spot as the trafic light let you time to eye contact the drivers. Perfect to go North/Birmingham. Car can stop along the road.―Anonymous

We spent a long time in the gas station speaking with people, but everyone was going to London, so when it stopped raining we crossed the road and got a car to Luton.The M&S crew is lovely and can help you
