[[Image:Agne-from-vilnius-to-radviliskis.jpg|left|thumb|300px|Bright clothes make it easier to be seen from a distance, which is especially necessary when hitchhiking directly on a highwaymotorway, as here in [[Lithuania]].]]
You should make sure you are standing along a safe portion of road, as far back from the traveled portion of the road as possible (on the unimproved portion of the road shoulder). Make sure that you are visible to drivers from a good distance (100 meters or more is ideal) to allow them time to 1) decide if they want to pick you up and 2) safely pull to the side of the road. Wear visible clothes, also while walking on the road!
