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

the worst place I have ever been, there is no real good spot to stand, it took me over 2 hours to get a ride. the ride was from a nice taxidriver who dropt me of on the M25, not even on a service station

I stood few meters back on the corner of petrol station so that cars came out on my right and passed by (slowed down) on my left. Went to St Albans (west) (had my sign) and nobody seemed to go there - got picked up by a guy who had just come from there and was kind enough to make a big detour. However I saw many drivers pointing east and many of the drivers questioned in the petrol station before that mentioned Cambridge. So that direction might be much luckier.

The service area layout forces a lot of traffic through the Waitrose parking lot. Standing near where cars turned to leave it seemed like the best approach. Got a ride to Dartford/Thurrock after maybe 40 minutes.

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.

Direction London - got a ride within 10 minutes (had a sign, but maybe was just lucky). The guy said he stopped because the roundabout slows the speed down enough.
Should be also able to go the other direction of M25. The cars passing by were enough (end of the weekend, May, 7pm)

Eventhough, there is a McDonald's here, and a gas station, it took me two hours, on a late wednesday morning to get a ride north on the A10. Cars a are driving by fast, and there is loads of them. Technically conditions should be really good, but I had a tough time here.

Bus stop - sign probably necessary. Possibility for the cars to stop without problems. I got a ride out to the first service station heading north fairly quick in January 2023. The motorway ahead goes both way so probably possible to get south as well.

We actually took time to find the good spot and this one was not bad, but not the best..
All the cars go to the M1, but drive quite fast/small place to park next to the garage. Good luck !

Got around the M25 by asking people at the pumps whether they were going clockwise.
