== Safety ==
Hitchhiking is quite safe in Finland indeed. As always, common sense is your friend.
== Legal matters for hitchhikers ==
== Highways ==
[[Image:Finnish_motorway_sign_561.png|right|60px]]It is illegal to hitchhike on the highways (called "moottoritie"“moottoritie”) and some motorways ("moottoriliikennetie"“moottoriliikennetie”) in Finland. You can recognize these from the green signs.
The cars can not stop in crossing areas, and some cars not obeying this rule and taking hitchhikers on board are know to be fined.
