“Good spot, but the traffic is very local, so if you're trying to go to Krakow, go to Radom from here :)”

“perfect if you need to be dropped off at the highway when driver goes to a small city. I stood with a sign "krakow" near the exit (this way all cars encounter you), got a lift on a cool tesla in 5 minutes”

“Lots of interactions with the drivers, good spot to talk to them but took a bit time to get a ride. Eventually after maybe a little over half an hour we got a ride straight to Krakow.”

“Direction: A4 Wroclaw, Germany (north and south), France. Excellent spot with petrol station, small parking place for trucks and bus stop. To get there take a bus nr.238,248,258,268,278 from Bronowice Nowe or Motel Krak and get off at the bus stop named Pasternik Cmentarz (you have to give a signal to the driver to stop here!!!) It's also good place to go to the turnpike A4(E40)”
