Rome
,→East towards Pescara, L'Aquila
From Termini go by metro line B to Ponte Mammolo station, and there you can take bus 508 (that is first station) and go untill last station - Mondavio. That is one long ride and you will come close to crossroad of second ring of highway around Rome and highway from Rome to east [Pescara, L Aquila]. Actually from that last station (Mondavio),you have walking around 500m to highway and then choose left to toll (around 1000m) or right to gas station (the same distance). We were walking on the highway which is illegal, but we had a luck not to be caught by police. Link for buses and metro in Rome: http://www.atac.roma.it/index.asp

There's a much more practical option if you want to head east. It's a gas station at the very beginning of A24 on the outbound side. GPS coordinates are: [https://www.google.com/maps?q=41.900767,12.549775 41.900767, 12.549775]
While the gas station described above has got traffic heading other directions already filtered out, this one serves people going multiple directions, but is way closer to the city center, easier to reach and still very effective. From Roma Termini, ride subway line B towards Rebibbia, and get off at Monti Tiburtini. From there, walk down the main road until you're just past the second overpass (exact coordinates here: 41.902511, 12.556836). From there, walk up the off-ramp trying to keep behind the guardrail. At some point you'll have to walk on the very road because of a fence surrounding a canal, but you can climb back over the guardrail after that. At the end of the off-ramp, you'll have to walk on the motorway again, but it's just a very short distance, and a part of it is ever sheltered by a concrete divider. The gas station is just a few meters down the road. My friend and I (two boys) tried this in October 2017 and it was fine. The staff was very tolerant, they told us we were fine as long as we didn't stand under the covered part of the station, but there's plenty of other areas to ask people, like the parking lot and the self-service lot. We got a ride after 30 minutes, and it took us 4 rides to make it all the way to Teramo.
