A lot of cars but mostly going to Ulm or Langenau. I went to Stuttgart. Cars are driving slowly and have plenty of time to see you and stop.

Very good spot to go towards Augsburg, Ulm or Stuttgart. I waited with sign on Stuttgart aprox. 45 minutes, but plenty of cars stopped before and offered me Augsburg. Eventually I went to Ulm with a brand new Porsche (just couldn’t say no to that).
Cars are going slowly, can see you clearly a d have a plenty of space to stop.

idk why no one rate that spot before but it’s a very known spot (a lot of tag on sign about dates and the ground was used of cars)
anyway, that spot is crazy for stuttgart!!! there isn’t that much of traffic but enough to find a ride
the place is perfect : space to stop, visible and cars are driving slow here
get a sign it would be easier
good luck 😌

Sehr unfreundliche Leute leider. Für richtig Stuttgart vermutlich besser als meine Route.

Wanted to go to Poland, but a guy going to Stuttgart offered me a ride in his brand new Corvette, so decided to go to the other side of Berlin with him to try from there

don't go to the north if you want to go to the north-east. Otherwise you'll get lost between Stuttgart and Heilbronn

Countless cars, but it still took an hour and a half to get anywhere. My signs went from Czechia to simply Południe (South) in an effort to get to Brno. Ended up with two guys going to Stuttgart who dropped me off in Worcław.

Stood at the exit with a Stuttgart sign and I waited more than an hour I think. Another hitchhiker passed by who wanted just go north and got a ride easily. Also be careful that before Stuttgart there is no good place to get dropped. If the driver goes more north (Nurnberg, Dresden, etc) they take the A81 and don't pass below Stuttgart. I was really lucky that the driver offered me to make a bit of a detour to drop me at Sidelfinger Wald Rastplatz.

Perfect place to go far north, rejected lots of cars going to Frankfurt, Kassel... Waited at the end of the station, where both the people from the gas station and the food court came. I was trying to go towards Stuttgart so had a sign for it, took a while but eventually got a truck. Waited

It‘s a good spot to get a lift towards Stuttgart or the airport and from there you can continue. Had a sign saying Flughafen

I asked people who came out of the restaurant. The first people I asked would have taken me to Stuttgart but I declined. Around the 10th person I asked took me to Karlsruhe. They were really suspicious and didn’t quite understand why I was hitchhiking but it was a very nice ride :)

This is a nice traffic light on an intersection - gives you plenty of time, probably around 1 minute or more. You can actually walk through the cars and people will often open their windows to ask where you're going.
I wanted to go south to Stuttgart and I thought this would get me to the A5. I was wrong. Most people coming through here are going to Mannheim. It's a good spot if you're going in that direction, otherwise you should find another one.
To go south like me, try the Speyerer Strasse in Kirchheim.

I initially stood by another traffic light farther north with a sign, and then I walked to this traffic light because it stays red for much longer, giving you time to walk around and actually get in a car without disturbing traffic.
I had a sign saying "Stuttgart" and eventually a woman waved at me from the passenger's seat. They took me straight to Stuttgart-Messe.
