Alternatively, take bus Nr. 7 (Direction: De Bleek) to busstop 'Burg. Damsstraat'. From here you can walk to Ringbaan West and walk to the South. You'll pass one gas station where you can try your luck in the morning to get a ride out of the city.

There is grass here where cars can stop and the traffic light will make sure that cars will drive slow most of the time.
edit: cars which go on the highway are in the wrong lane to turn in the gas station. Also further down 'Ringbaan West' the opportunities are not really good. The option at Ringbaan Oost and Ringbaan Zuid / BP gasstation mentioned above also works for the directions Breda, Rotterdam, Antwerp
