Try to avoid hitchhiking from Moscow to Nizhny Novgorod on a friday....traffic is insane.While seeing the huge traffic jam going up the hill I tried to get a lift to Nizhny Novgorod from there. After about 20 minutes I just decided to walk along the traffic jam searching eye contact with some driver and stuck out my thumb. That worked pretty well, however walking was the same speed :D TAKE CARE! The hard shoulder can become very dangerous in Russia!

got dropped of at the wrong side of vladimir while hitchhiking to Nizhny Novgorod. Tried to make my way through the city. At this point I gave it a try for approximately an hour but didn't manage to get a ride. Continued walking and somewhere further up a girl drove me to the exit of vladimir just to be nice :)―Anonymous, July 2015

If you want to go towards Nizhny Novgorod it will be better if you walk on to the other spot. TAKE CARE! In case that there's a traffic jam there will be cars using the hard shoulder and they go pretty fast.―Anonymous, July 2015
