Had no luck getting a ride straight to Tallinn, but it's a good spot

perfect spot in theory, but no one stopped. tried thumb, tried sign with Tallinn and sign with EST. ended up taking the bus closer to the border to filter out local traffic more, but if you wait longer you can definitely get a ride north.

probably as mentioned earlier by estohiker the best spot out of tallinn. both speeding cars coming from the city and those from the mall are fine.

Wide roadside, basically a gamblers spot as you can catch a car coing towards Lasnamäe, Maardu or to the Tallinn roundabout direction- Narva/Tartu/Pärnu, or even to Muuga (less likely due to the next turn being of the cars for that). Would recommend taking any car that takes you further. Seems like a spot where noone would stop and you will have loads of cars go by you, but never say never, as somehow I have managed to get always a car here before the rarely seen busses, if you feel lucky, definitely try this here, just make sure to be not too close to the bus stops as there's almost always someone waiting for a bus, ruining your chances of getting a car, wait times of 5-30 minutes expected

To Tallinn, aim for the cars coming from Jüri, basically everyone that uses Viadukti road heads at the least to Mõigu, where you can catch the Tallinn's city bus, though most cars head even further in to the city. Loads of traffic, and small but good enough space to stop a car, wait times of 5-15 minutes expected

Towards Puurmani, very low traffic, but locals are friendly, you can hitch basically anywhere along the road, walk along the road, wouldn't recommend being here very late or very early, otherwise good road with chance of getting cars or lorries going all the way to Tallinn for example, due to factories around Tabivere, wait times of 5-20 minutes expected

Towards Muuga/Viimsi/Pirita, nice bus stop which truth be told isn't the largest but does the job, place has streetlights and due to it being basically in Tallinn would have 24/7 traffic, try to make sure the car stopping goes the direction you want, wait times of 10-20 minutes expected

Towards Aovere, but a lot of the cars taking this exit actually usually go quite some long distance (Mustvee/Jõhvi/Jõgeva/Tallinn etc). The turn itself isn't the best, not the most amount of room but you will be able to stop anything due to the low speeds, don't be hesitated about most cars staying on Tartu-Räpina highway, try to aim cars coming from Räpina direction - those are the long distance ones, wait times of 15-45 minutes expected

I stood just before the bus stop/gas station. Perfect spot for Tallinn. Sign highly recommended though. Fairly slow speeds for such a big road and good visibility.

Very good spot towards Risti/Haapsalu/Tallinn. Not a lot of traffic and loads of cars turn the other directions, but the odds of a car picking you up here are pretty good, as well as loads of long distance cars, every time i have been here the driver has been going to Tallinn, which is very nice, as well as two good options on the way for Haapsalu, so all in all a really nice wide stop with good visibility, wait times of 5-25 minutes to be expected

A Georgian in a LT car stopped, and took me to Tallinn from here with a coffee and snack stop in between.

Really good spot. You can be clearly seen by drivers, and there is a lot of space to stop. I got a ride with a really nice guy all the way to Tallinn.

Overall a nice spot, have waited twice in two weeks here for around 15min and got a straight ride to Tallinn.

Asked around in the line of cars waiting for the ferry. Most of them were driving towards Tallinn/Harjumaa, but then found a car driving to Tartu through Pärnu.

Hitched a ride quickly to the centre of Tallinn in the dark. There was light there so it was alrighty.

Towards Keila/Tallinn, Madise, after the army camp, you can hitch just anywhere on the road, good odds of getting picked up by drivers and quite some long distance cars as well, friendly people, wait times of 5-15 minutes expected

Towards Vääna-Jõesuu, in theory should be a good spot, good visiblity, nice bus stop and even cars turning from Kolmiku road towards you but in reality noone really wants to stop here, nor the other direction (some local lad missed his bus and tried to hitch towards Tallinn and failed to do so also, during midday very low traffic also for such populated area, wait times of 50-80 minutes expected, I ended up walking to find a better spot (not really much of options coming for the next few kms)

Towards Muraste, I'd use this patch of sideroad as there's a really wide asphalted side on the road for the houses by the side of the road, which is very comfortable for drivers to stop to, as well as u have good view from cars coming from Tallinn direction, the bus stop a bit further up is frequented with local busses, has usually lots of people in them as well as foilage is skewing the view, this here is a rather ideal spot, wait times of 5-20 minutes expected

Tested my luck trying to go around Pärnu, quite a long speeding up lane from the Maksimarket, good visibility and speeds are low, tho a loads of cars around here will just enter Pärnu, within 30 minutes someone will feel bad and stop for you, but the odds of that car going to Tallinn are small and for Ikla even smaller. Might be worth to have a sign, I would rather recommend taking the city busses

Was quickly picked up by a guy driving to Tallinn on a Sunday morning.
