Walk down ''Hansastraße'' and you will pass 2 petrol stations. Both are good for asking people or to wave a sign. The [https://hitchmap.com/#51.0797458759402,13.7395338714123 first ] is generally better and you may meet some other hitchers. Hitching with thumb only is not recommended as cars are going in all directions.

The gas stations may not be the best place to hitchhike. There is a good sized entry lane for the shell gas station but the exit has no feeder lane which means you kind of have to choose between the street traffic or just the people at the gas station. The same goes for the [https://hitchmap.com/#51.08410914850553,13.739014863967897 second gas station].

Another [https://hitchmap.com/#51.0999934090384,13.7359946966171 good hitchhiking spot ] is very close to the motorway ramp. From Bahnhof Neustadt take the bus 81 towards ''Wilschdorf'' and get off at ''Hellerberge''. If you stand besides the bus stop with a sign ''Berlin'', you probably won't wait for long. It also helps that there is a traffic light just before this so every so often cars have to come to a complete stop and stare at you for a minute.

There is also a similar and possibly slightly [https://hitchmap.com/#51.08746224093905,13.737961292266242 better bus stop ] after a traffic light 500 meters up the road from the second gas station in Option one1. It seemed liked this one has more time with the light being red meaning more drivers had to come to a complete stop before passing the bus stop.

Very often there are hitchhikers [https://hitchmap.com/#51.0663198502892,13.7393045425415 right behind the railway station ''Dresden-Neustadt'']. Be aware that this is a common meeting point for car-pools, so if you stop a car there you might be asked to contribute to the cost of fuel, although generally it is very unlikely as anywhere else in Germany.

From Dresden-Neustadt DB station; take bus number 81 (WILSCHDORF) to the stop 'Am Olter'. This should not take longer than fifteen minutes. Here you are right at [https://hitchmap.com/#51.10861743987,13.733332824457 ''Dresden Hellerau'' interchange ] of B170 and A4 / A13 direction Leipzig as well as Chemnitz. You can try to directly hitchhike there or to use 'Rastanlage Dresdner Tor' (10 minutes/12 kilometers from here) as a relais.

[https://hitchmap.com/#51.0070042924658,13.7294983863831 B170, A17 / E55 autobahn interchange ([http://hitchwiki.org/maps/?place=4650 map]). There is a traffic light at entry ramp to A17 east towards Prag with a blue sign, a wide shoulder, and just after the corner to the entry ramp is a small slab of asphalt were drivers can stop. Try to get a ride to the next rest stop, about 5 minutes away driving. <br>
