Note: it is a dangerous spot, I do not recommend walking along the motorway.
=== Direction [[Zagreb]] , [[Zadar]] and [[Split]] ===Hitchhiking to Zagreb is very easy and a really good experience. The main spot is the on-ramp at ''Grobnik'', from there you can easily get a ride. Hitching from Rijeka to Zagreb is very short. It will take you approx. 1,5 hours. But first, to get to the on-ramp near ''Grobnik'' you have to take bus #16 at the ''Delta'' bus terminal, which is 500m away from the theatre ''HNK Ivana pl. Zajca'' in the centre of Rijeka. On the bus ask the bus driver to leave you near the main statue which is 2 km before the ramp. To get to the on-ramp you have to walk along the local road, but you can already start hitchhiking here. Sometimes locals help and pick you up. On the ramp waiting time will be max. 20 min. but in general you wait there for a few minutes. From there you can hitchhike to Dalmacija ([[Zadar]], [[Split]] etc.) but its easier to get to Zagreb (Lučko ramp) and from there continue to Dalmacija...
If you want to go to Dalmatia ([[Zadar]], [[User:OnmyownSplit]] waited for the bus #16 for two hours and when etc.), you can try it did not comedirectly from Rijeka, he decided but it is easier to try his luck with bus #12. The same technique can be applied - just ask the driver first get to drop you off as closest Zagreb (to the highway as possible. After a 3km walk through the beautiful Croatian countryside he reached the on-Lučko ramp very close ) and continue to the toll gates and caught a ride within 10 minutesDalmatia from there.
Another idea is to go to '''Option 1''' From the main tollgates 20km from Rijeka on -ramp near ''Soboli'' and the A6 highway. You should go to the main bus station in Rijeka ''Grobnik'' airport and catch a bus going to Zagreb. Just tell the driver to drop you off on the tollgates racetrack (about 20km from Rijeka''Automotodrom''). Offer him about 15 , or 20 Kunathe tollbooth which is next to it. Once There are two ways to get there, just stand after the gates and try your luck.:
One more '''Option 1/A''' Going there with a local bus. This is a bit tricky, it is difficult to see which bus goes where. Your purpose is to get as close to the "Main statue" as possible. This is a huge monument next to the highway, 2 km before the on-ramp and the tollbooth. Go to the Delta bus terminal, which is in the centre of Rijeka, 500m away from the theatre ''HNK Ivana pl. Zajca''. Take bus #12, #14 or #16. It is a good idea to check timetables before (see below at the section about public transport). Ask the driver to leave you near the main statue or the tollbooth. With bus #16, he can leave you directly at the statue. With bus #12, it is go not sure - ask the driver to bring you as close to to the statue and the highway as possible. [[User:Onmyown]] says it takes 3 km from the stop of bus #12 to the hitching spot. With bus #14, get off in Cavle, and change to bus #15, which also passes by the statue. You can also get off in Cavle and change to bus #15 with buses #12 and #16. [[File:Main_statue_rijeka.jpg|thumb|200px|The main statue close to the option 1 hitching spot]] From the statue, you have to walk 2 km along the local road, but you can already start hitchhiking here, sometimes locals help and pick you up. At the on-ramp, you can choose to hitchhike directly, or walk 200m forward on the highway to get to the toll gate. On the ramp waiting time will be max. 20 min. but in general you wait there for a few minutes. '''Option 1/B''' Go to the main bus station in Rijeka and catch a bus going to Zagreb. Just tell the driver to drop you off at the tollbooth (about 20km from Rijeka). Offer him about 15 or 20 Kuna. '''Option 2''' Go to new road near a port. There you can stay after lights, which are on the crossroad of Brajdica street and Šetalište Andrije Kačića Miošića. There is a lane from where cars have to go out, so there is good place to catch a car.
