'''NOTE:'''730 CMR is only applicable on the turnpike. When off the interstate, hitchhiking is not always illegal
General Laws of Massachusetts - Chapter 81A the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority and the Metropolitan Highway System. - Section 1 Massachusetts Turnpike Authority; constitution as public instrumentality
"...Whoever, for the purpose of soliciting a ride on the turnpike or the metropolitan highway system, displays a sign, signals a moving vehicle, causes the stopping of a vehicle or stands on property of the authority in view of a ramp or roadway of the turnpike may be arrested without a warrant and shall be punished by a fine of not more than fifty dollars..."
Basically they really, really don't want you on the interstate/turnpike.
=== Federal Districts ===
'''Note''':All land owned by the National Park service prohibits hitchhiking under the Code of Federal Regulations
Title 36 section 4.31: Hitchhiking or soliciting transportation is prohibited
''except in designated areas and under conditions established by the superintendent.''
*Cape Cod National Seashore
4.31 has not been amended here, so hitchhiking is prohibited.
