== Hitching Out ==
=== South towards [[Maastricht]], [[Aachen]], southwest towards [[Antwerp]], east to [[Venlo]] ===
There is a petrol station and a roundabout named "Floraplein" one kilometer north of the highway-junction A2 x A67 (junction "Knooppunt Leenderheide"). There is a bus stop where people can easily stop just by this petrol station. This is a reknown spot for hitchhiking, which was very popular in the times when Dutch students still had to pay for public transport.
=== West North towards [[Den Bosch]], [[Amsterdam]], west towards [[Tilburg]], [[Breda]], etc ===A2 access lane 31 "Veldhoven" (A2 x Noord-Brabantlaan). Several modern buses per hour to Veldhoven. Get out at the bus stop just before the motorway. Use a sign on the onramp. Onramp under reconstruction, but suitable (Feburary 2009).

=== West towards [[Tilburg]], [[Breda]], etc ===
Go to the Tilburgweg/Postkoetsweg junction in the North-East of the city. There is a set of traffic lights before the MacDonalds with a lot of regional traffic. According to Fverhart this is the junction of A2 x A58 (Knooppunt De Hogt), where you cannot hitchhike. Maybe in emergency cases. Do not confuse with A2 access lane 32 "Veldhoven-Zuid", this one is quite unsuitable in both directions.
=== North towards [[Nijmegen]]===
=== From the airport ===
When you arrive at the airport, just follow the signs to the motorway, you'll reach it in 15 Minutes. The airport traffic merges here with the traffic from the city, so it's easy to get a ride, but you will need a sign. According to Fverhart due to the motorway works this A2 access lane 30 "Eindhoven Airport" is not suitable anymore to the north, to the south unknown. Alternative, walk further on the Anthony Fokkerweg untill a small sideroad and hitchhike there, or walk further to the second road crossing after the motorway. There is a bus stop, use sign. Or in stead walk towards the southeast for three kilometers to A2 access lane 31 "Veldhoven". Or try to find a ride on the parking area of the airport.
