As seen in August 2014, the construction work being made on the highway led to a one-line traffic with a 60km/h limited speed where the bridge is. There is no entrance but there is the perfect place to HH. After the one line reduction the highway goes to a normal 2line + emergency traffic. So there is plenty space for the cars to stop (around 6m) and the cars go 60km/h. (Not sure how long is it going to be like that.)

If you wish to hitchhike on the motorway, you should exit at the overpass just before entering Batajnica and walk up to the highway. There has been some road constructions last few years (2011-2015), so it should be ok to get a ride because cars slow down a bit. If there is no more road constructions, it's also ok because there is a lot of space for cars to pull down. Try to get any ride to the highway toll gate in [[Novi Sad]], where all cars have to stop. There you can ask people to take you further, even to Hungary (edited by [[User:NixyJungle|NixyJungle]]).
Be careful of pickpockets on the bus..an old man may look harmless but has quick hands, oh! When you get out, have a sign for Novi Sad and get out at the péage, the toll booth which is quite a way before Novi but the best place to stand to get a long distance ride..here you can whip out a sign for [[Budapest]]
[[User:Evolverine]] in July 2016 no sign of construction work. Plus, hitchhiking Hitchhiking on the highway was awful, cars going way too fast to even consider picking anyone up. So after a couple of minutes I went to the road the cars from Belgrade took to get onto the highway, here geo:44.88789,20.30195?z=17 (not marked on the linked mapabove), and in about 2h I got a ride in about 2h to the border with Hungary, after which it was easy to get another ride to [[Budapest]]. But the general feeling that it's hard to hitch out of Belgrade seems accurate.
* [[User:Luelle]] Another option if you don't want to ride a bus for so long: Take the 95 Bus from the city center to New Belgrade and exit at the station called Sava Center. It stops directly passed a bridge that is over the highway. Exit the bus and walk towards the bridge, you will see a petrol station on the highway to the right which is the direction Novi Sad/ Budapest. This a petrol station which you can use to get a short ride out of the city. Finding a long ride is pretty unlikely from this point since its mostly local traffic. Beware: Bring some cardboard with you. There isn't anything around.
