Very little traffic on here I probably saw maybe 10 or 15 cars the whole time I was here, though I was here 11am on a workday. Got picked up by a German couple who took me all the way to Edinburgh!

This is likely a good spot, but I just unlucky. I came here in the evening and tried to thumb a ride to Dundee. Tried for two hours, asked at the gas station, nothing worked. Then I slept hidden in nearby bushes (it's hidden and doable, not comfortable) and continued the next morning. It took me like 20 minutes to thumb a car.

Btw, the gas station staff is awesome, I went here in the evening (around 8pm) asked for a cardboard and the guy told me that I can have all the pastry that I want because he has to throw it out. Don't count on that, but he made my day.

A decent spot. I stood just on the ramp to McDonald's. I would advise you not to ask for the rides in the McDonald's parking lot, I did not even have time to start asking and the manager came out pissed at me that I can't do that (even though I did not do anything). A cool fisherman waved at me from the lot and took me all the way to Aberdeen.

This is a decent spot for Peterhead, but maybe I just got lucky. There is a small infrequent gas station, so you are much better just thumbing from around here.

Bus 13 and 16 from city centre. Burger King is a good indicator where to get off the bus

There is a busstop just after the street turned into a "highway". First there´s a parking spot and right after that the busstop. Easy to thumb a ride towards Inverness and generally north of Scotland!Take bus 27 to get there. 17 and 21 get you close to it!

Exellent for Inverness and north. Most of the local trafic to airport and Dyce industrial area has turned. A sign is helpfull as well. Stagecoach buses will take here for £1.70 bit pricy but worth it

I spent 2 hours in rain until I got a ride. But still, I think it's the most reasonable place to hitchhike if you're heading south.
