Was waiting for about 1h, without sign though. Nobody stopped - probably the cars were way too fast. My direction was Mannheim.. Asking at the traffic lights might help.

A bit hard to get to Frankfurt. Arrived at 14:30, I was here for 1:20 hr, asking people at first, then rotating between thumbingn at the exit with sign, or asking truck drivers.
70% of truck drivers were going to sleep / cutrtain closed. 15% went to sleep 15% didn’t went to frankfurt.
People only said they didn’t go to frankfurt. Once I changed my sign to mannheim I got a stop from so

Couldn't get to Saarbrücken or even Kaiserslautern for 3 hours, then accepted an offer towards Mannheim. There's a fair amount of local traffic here according to the driver.

Indeed perfect spot to continue on the A3 towards Frankfurt, but I needed to turn west on the A6 towards Mannheim... It took me 3 hours to finally find someone who was going in this direction and could take me.
This gas station is quite busy so you can ask many people in a short time. I think the best is t stand at the main entrance of the shop/restaurant, almost everyone goes there.

good spot to head south direction Mannheim. I always leave Bonn from that spot and never had to wait more than 30 minutes to get a lift.

Im living in Mannheim and was hitchhiking to a friend living in Bayreuth. Since there´s no good spot close to the city centre I had to wait for almost 4h.

Cars, which picked me up here, usually went to Grnstadt, Mannheim or Darmstadt. It should not be a problem, to get at least to the next "Rasthof" (Grnstadt, Pfalz). Enough space to stop

Best spot in the area towards Mannheim. Stand right at the "no pedestrians" sign. Make a sign here. There is only a small area to stop just behind the sign, so not a fantastic spot, but it will work. A campervan stopped within a few minutes for me. I had a sign "M'Heim''.

Got dropped off 2 times here to hitchhike southbound and waited no longer than 15min. Just go for it and ask the drivers! One time i got a direct ride to Mannheim and the other one was going in direction of Munich. Not much traffic but you will be busy with talking to people anyway.

Parking Rennschlag (no WC): direction north/west (Koblenz, Kaiserslautern, Saarbrcken, Mannheim, Ludwigshafen)
This is a meeting place for gay men. Cars are there, but mostly locals. Note that most cars coming from east on A6 going north onto A61 or west onto A6 don't use this part of A6 and use the A61 between Hockenheim and Frankenthal, instead. They save approx. 2 km by that.

Waiting on dinner the next afternoon. Cars on the highway almost not I stop. Trucks remain overnight and ready to go in the morning. The French have come to purchase the fields and returned back to France.
To travel in the direction of Mannheim, to go to town, or request drivers of freight cars.
