If your driver is not going to the city but continue on this motorway, you can ask him to leave the motorway at the Vienna exit, and turn right onto a smaller road after 150 m. This road then leads under the large street ''Vídeňská'', where there is a tram stop. The driver can drive on to a roundabout and easily get back onto the D1.
'''If the driver continues to Prague''' jump off at OMV petrol station at the end of Brno (Starý Lískovec). There '''don't''' go though the appletree plantation - it is too complicated. Easier way is more hidden - go back next to the highway for about 300 m and then there is a path going under the motorway. Go left and you'll get to the town (and public transport) in 5 minutes.
'''If the driver continues to Vienna''' jump of at Futurum Shopping centre or at a petrol station in Modřice. At both places there is a tram route.
__TOC__
Mikulov is a nice town near the Austrian border with very slow and dense long-distance traffic. Take the bus 105 from the centre, Ústřední hřbitov or Novomoravanská stops all the way to Mikulov. The ticket is 14 CZK with ISIC, or 56 CZK (~2 €), you can buy it directly from the driver. Looking for a car going to Mikulov at the petrol stations in Brno is not as easy since many people only go to the nearby villages. It takes some time but from Mikulov you can get easy rides by standing on the roadside or asking around far beyond Vienna. [[user:Duffajfka|Duffajfka]] frequents this and used to find direct rides to places like Zagreb, Slovenia or Salzburg before the pandemic.
'''Good for Uherské Hradiště.''' Take a bus 33 from Hlavní nádraží (train station) and go to stop "Slatina sídliště" (terminal). Go right and you will see a roundabout 50 m ahead. Cross it straight and hitchhike there. Usually you get first car to Slavkov u Brna and then second car to Uherské Hradiště or further.
There are several good spots and hitchhiking is easy in every village/town on the way.

This road then leads under the large street ''Vídeňská'', where there is a tram stop. The driver can drive on to a roundabout and easily get back onto the D1. At the Bratislava exit there is a shopping centre Avion with a free bus to the city centre. The driver can easily get back onto the D1 too by driving about 2 km.
If driver is going toward Vienna or Bratislava it's quite clear where to get off.

== Hitching out ==
=== Northwest towards [[Jihlava]], [[Praha]] {{Dcz|1}}{{E|50}}{{E|65}} ===
This spot is quickly and easily accessible from various parts of Brno with hitchability from average to good. Find trolley-bus 25, 26 or 29 and get off at stop "Čtvrtě". From the bridge you can see big road to Prague. Go down and after 200 m there is smaller petrol station. Next to it is great place to hitchhike just a few metres from pump machines where you can ask people. Unfortunately on this lane often parks some truck or two so you can only hitchhike cars leaving station or ask.
If you get stuck here, you can try your luck in another spot which is quite close to this one. Walk towards the highway and the bridge over your road, climb up the bridge and follow the road NW until you see traffic lights and you can stand right after the lights where you get people from both directions. However, it's really difficult for drivers to stop here for you to get in. It's much, much better to just go to second option, it's not that far away.
This station is bigger than the one at first option, little bit harder to access, good hitchability.
==== Third option ====
Small petrol station OMV on the motorway near Bosonohy - almost without cars. To Bosonohy, bus stop "Hoštická" you can get by bus 69 (from Masaryk's University campus, or trams 6, 8 stop "Dunajská"). Then go little bit back to the main road and right. After 1,5 km you will see that station. Or from "Dunajská" you can go by bus 401 or 402 (you have to pay the driver; once an hour) to request stop "Tranzitní plynovod". Just few metres back and right is that petrol station.
==== Fourth option ====
Bigger petrol station Shell on the motorway near Popůvky. A bit further from Brno (3 km after the Third option) but almost all cars go to Prague or even further. Take bus 401 or 402 (↑↑) to the "Popůvky - Vintrovna" stop. Continue on the main road 850 m and there is the spot. You can also walk & hitchhike to this place from Bosnohy.
=== South towards [[Bratislava]] (SK), [[Budapest]] (H) {{Dcz|2}}{{E|65}} ===
==== Second Option ====
This is probably a much better one than the first option. Take bus 40, 48, 59, 67 or the free "Avion bus" and get off at Hněvkovského. Walk 450m in the direction the bus was going (if you took the bus from the city center). After passing a crossroads with traffic lights, you will see a gas station. Now you can choose whether you approach people that stop at the gas station or stand at the beginning of the fairly long driveway to it.
=== South towards [[Vienna]] (A) {{Dcz|52}}{{E|461}} ===
==== First option ====
Take the free bus from behind Tesco, at the tram 2 stop ''Ořechovská'', to the shopping center (''obchodni centrum'') Futurum. Once you are at at the shopping center Futurum, you will find a Tesco gas station, but most of the people there are just staying in town. From here you can walk couple of kilometres or use tram 2 to second spot. '''October 2017''': ''[[User:Kossabossa|Kossabossa]]: the place has low traffic and no one is going all the way to Vienna. It took us about 45 minutes to find a Catch ride to a Shell gas station in Mikulov, from where it was its really easy to find a ride to Vienna.''
==== Unicorn fuel station ====
==== Third option ====
There is a nice spot for hitchhiking just next to the tram 2 stop "Ústřední hřbitov" where you can hitch south to Vienna or just to the next petrol station. When you get off the tram just go on the main street and then turn right 100m and you will find a nice place to stop cars. Keep in mind that this spot is not on the main road so there's a litle smaller trafic.
==== Fourth option ====
Mikulov is a nice town near the Austrian border with very slow and dense long-distance traffic. Take the bus 105 from the centre, Ústřední hřbitov or Novomoravanská stops all the way to Mikulov. The ticket is 14 CZK with ISIC, or 56 CZK (~2 €), you can buy it directly from the driver.

==== First option ====
Take tram number 8 to station "Krásného", from the station go to the overbridge. To Olomouc you will stay over head 30 minutes.
==== Second option ====
Take the trolleybus number 33 from the railway station (Hlavní nádraží) to the station "Langrova" (it takes 13 minutes). Cross the street and go up the street Slavkovská, after two minutes you come to a main road which you also cross and continue on a footpath straight for another 50 meters to a petrol station which already lies on a highway.
==== Fourth option ====
=== North towards [[Pardubice]], [[Hradec Králové]] {{Dcz|43}}{{E|461}} ===
==== First option ====
Take tram 12 to the stop "Červinkova" and go 200 m to the left. Just before the bridge get down to the highway. Almost everywhere there is good shoulder for cars to stop or another 200 m behind is Shell petrol station.
==== Second option ====
By buses 41 and 42 get to the shopping centre Globus (bus stop "Ivanovice, Globus"). There you can hitchhike just after roundabout or up at the main road.
==== Other options ====
At the highway near tram 6 terminal station "Kr. Pole, nádraží".<br />
At the highway connection near tram 1 stop "Tylova".<br />
