""Personal experience:"" TonyPro spent 5 hours over 2 days standing here in freezing rain. Drivers occasionally pull over here to look at maps; eventually he got a ride by asking one of them. Clearly this isn't an ideal place to hitch from, so take advantage of the approachability of the Scottish people.
Other options are another pullover area about 1 1/2 miles down the highway (people will be going extremely fast there, but will all be going long distances south), or if you have a sign, outside the furniture store near the Thistle hotel, across from the KFC. And as always when taking advice from HitchWiki, keep your eyes open for better places.
For Glasgow, the A9 is probably the fastest route, but you may have better luck hitching the tourist route down the A82, along the edge of Loch Ness. This is also the way to get to Fort William.
