leaving Pula was a nightmare, but eventually found a ride to move closer to Rijeka and Zagreb. Had a sign RJ/ZG

The bus stop after the roundabout is the best spot if you're going from Pula to Rijeka, many cars going even in the evening and the highway to rijeka starts soon. Two cars stopped for me, but the first one offered me a ride to the airport, it wouldn't have been a good choice to take that ride though as most ppl from the airport are going back to Pula.

Mostly fully packed family cars going on holidays. We were two men (czech.asian and ukrainian) hitchhiking to Rijeka. The beat way to get a ride was to cold approach drivers stopping at the petrol station. There a lot of traffic tho.

Wonderful spot (even has a good view). Cars slow down because of the curve and there is ample space for people to stop at the rest area. I went direction Rijeka and got a ride at 9am signaling with the thumb

Its a good spot if you want to go rijeka/zadar/split. We stood with a sign at the exit of the station but you can ask people instead. Hard to get there though

The spot is not perfect. People doesn’t stop but we are not surprised its italy. We were lucky a croatian take us to rijeka. Advice : put you in the center of the intersection to get the both road if you want to go to Croatia or SlovΓ©nia

A guy and a girl.
It's not a perfect spot because there is not a ton of space where to park, but the cars go decently slow.
We held up a sign that read "SUD".
We got lucky and got picked very quickly by a great guy. We initially asked him to bring us to Rijeka, but ended up travelling with him until Gospic.

Nice spot just near the stop and the tram. I waited 30 minutes and a truck drivers sign me to come to his car. Not very safe bc you have to run to the car quickly before the stop comes green. He drive me directly to Rijeka. (Solo woman travelling)

Lots of local cars. Almost the longest wait on the way home. Finally, a guy who had given us a ride from Karlovac to Rijeka earlier hitchhiked us :D We had been lucky.

good traffick and slow speed and has busstop for cars to stop. stranded there with sign to Italy or Austria as there are many german and austrian cars. Unfortunately nobody seemed to be interested and locals flipped me off. Changed sign to Rijeka and took me around 50min to be picked up

2 people, a boy and a girl. We were on our way to Zadar through the jadranska Magistrala and we could't get out of rijeka, so we took a bus to this station and tried from there. It is not the best one, but it works to go south.

2 people, a girl and a boy.
We tried it with a sign at the end of the gas station, but it was too late and it was a thursday evening, so not a lot of cars. After 1 hour of trying we asked a croatian couple to give us a ride and they did, all the way to Rijeka. Also a tip: if you want to sleep in Rijeka, try the beach. definitely the best spot. The one we slept on is the Glavanovo beach, there is a lot of stairs to get there so no poeple want to go there at night and you have your own personal shower and swimming pool in the morning! Also locals don't care about people sleeping on the beach.
