“There are not that many cars on Saturday afternoon. I couldn't get a ride to Berlin after ~2 hours waiting. The next gas station 350 m north is more popular due to lower prices. It might be a better option.”

“I guess I was lucky. I arrived here around 23.30, the patrol station was almost empty, but than a car stopped and I saw on the licence plat they were coming from Magdeburg. I could join them to Magdeburg.”

“Am Fichtenplan Nord, A10. It seems that most cars here are locals going into Berlin after refilling fuel. The best from here is to get a short ride to the next station Michendorf, where there's a lot more long distance traffic, both to Magdeburg/Hannover as well as Leipzig.”
