“you should be lucky to find a car here because it's forbidden to stop here for Germans”

“Got the tram from city centre to "Nürnberger Platz" and walked to the Busstop. Within 2 minutes got a rid in the evening by a Czech couple heading directly to Praha. In the night the place is fully illuminated, so you can hitchhike from that spot at any time without appearing myterious.”

“there's a bus stop right after the intersection. it has the advantage of cars coming from 3 directions and just after the red light, so the traffic isn't that fast. still, i waited an hour to get a ride to prague.”

“Decent place for hitching out of Dresden towards the Czech border. A fair amount of CZ cars passing by. We were picked up by a couple going to Prague after about half an hour; they were not local (from Frankfurt), so it seems long-distance traffic passes through here. We stood at the bus station, where there is ample space for cars to stop. Traffic isn’t too fast thanks to the lights.”
