Michigan

From Hitchwiki

Michigan is a state of the United States. It is a good state for hitching.

Detroit (Motown) makes it interesting.

Avoid Jackson, it's a prison town, hitching sucks there.

Mostly harmless.

I hitched 75S from Detroit at a local gas station off the interstate. Took about 2 hours, but I got a ride from a trucker... nice fellow.

I-75 Rest Areas: I had great luck at 2 rest areas (just bathrooms/info) on I-75 between Bay City and the Mackinac Bridge. I'd imagine all rest areas are good, but I it took me about 5-10 minutes to pick up a several hour ride at each one. Summer would be easier even, but I was there in October 2008.
