# Pointing-moving your thumb every now and then above your shoulder towards the direction.
# Even single a "little" gesture with the two fingers helps, as explained on "the avrage driver" exioma. That is where board usually comes in super handy.
 
* '''Asking for Ride''' - Dont be afraid to talk to people and ask them directly if you can hop on. Some drivers would not consider taking you, yet by hearing a nice, friendly, polite voice they might will as well as feel a bit more obligation to help you.
 
===Different Vessles===
You should feel comfortable through out the whole way to your destenation. if you feel un comfortable hopin on a spesific vessle - dont. As it will tire you out and make a bad expiriance for the future. If you feel unsafe with the drivers drive dont be ashamed to tell him (i do ask all motocycle rides to drive relatively slow especially on unpaved roads, never needed to tell in a car) he will understand your worry, remember he stopped in order to help and will be nice enough to make you feel comfortable.
 
* '''Back of a Pick-Up Truck''' - The back of a pick up truck is where you are likely to spend a big chunk of the road. However there is a clear problem of safety. For the driver it might be convinient to tell you to hop on the back and so he wont need to worry from a dangerous hiker or either talk in case he isnt in the mood. It is also an extra space in case the seats are full. On the hiker side you have zero control on what is going on and hop on without at least getting to know if the driver is trust worthy is not recomended. You should have a few words with the driver about the way and agree on a place before hands since you wouldnt be able to converse once you start driving, knockin on the roof for stop at most. There is also the problem of sitting without safety belt and potentially with unfastten equipment that might hurt you in case of emegency stop, curves or iresponsible driving.
 
* '''Motocycles''' - Motocycles and vesspas are somewhat problemaric when it comes to traveling with luggage, yet is possible. It is a good way to travel fast, but just like driving one - even less safe as taking a ride with a car. Try to ask the driver for an extra helmet. Usually not likely to work, but some drivers keep an extra "half halmet" in the box of the vesspa - not much, but certainly bettee than nothing. I for instance tend to minimise motocycle rides since i feel unsafe with a stranger driver. You might ask to drive slower, but remember driving slower means less balance.
My vision is to have a colective grid-table for people to add on theory and different people to add on their tests result and so things would become sientific and clear very fast.
