East towards Bratislava, Győr and Budapest {{Aat|4}} {{European Route Number|60}}
To get to this petrol station by public transport, take metro line U3 to ''Enkplatz'' and from there you can take a bus 76A to ''7. Haidequerstraße'' (the bus stop is on the other side of the street at the intersection when you leave the metro station). Be careful because there are two stops with almost the same name, ''7. Haidequerstraße'' and ''11. Haidequerstraße'' – get off at the first one, which comes after the stop ''Simmeringer Haide''. After the stop, the bus turns right, but to get to the petrol station, walk straight on on to the north for just 200 m. The petrol station is on the [[A4 (Austria)|A4]] highway towards Bratislava, Győr and Budapest.
Once you have reached the petrol station, just wait near the entrance and ask drivers entering the shop. (Hitchhiking from the petrol station exit or thumbing at cars on the road itself is not advisable.[<<though the experience of [[User:Movethathoof|Movethathoof]] as explained below militates against the advice not to hitch from the highway entrance]) Cars with foreign number plates regularly pull into the station, and these drivers are likely going abroad.  Note: Watch out for Romanian drivers who may attempt to charge you for the ride; make sure before you accept a lift from a Romanian driver that you are not going to pay by saying e.g. ''E gratis? / N-am bani sa va dau.'' ‘''"Is the lift free? / I can't pay.’
Most of the cars passing in this petrol station are coming off the motorway or going to the airport. You can get more cars going to [[Slovakia]] or [[Hungary]] if you take the first ride to the next petrol station on the motorway, named Göttlesbrunn, which is just before road splits into the E58 towards Bratislava and the E60 towards Budapest. The E60 road enters Hungary at the [[Hegyeshalom-Nickelsdorf border crossing]].
