“Great spot towards Bratislava. Illegal and very hard to get out of during peak traffic. Got a ride to Bratislava within 15 minutes without a sign, however I would recommend having one”

“I don't remember precisely how I got there (they reconstructed the area since - 2016 is the time of my past ride). Definitely not a great spot from perspective of location.
