Changes

There is a simple hitchhiker rule of thumb that states: the faster the cars the more space is needed to spot the hiker, slow down and stop the car. Very good places to approach people are therefore petrol stations as people do stop and have time and also traffic lights as people have to stop. When a car stands still, it is easy to talk to people in the car. Most hitchhikers develop their own [[gesture]] (showing a sign, smile and doing some sort of hand/finger movement) that asks drivers to open their windows without being [[scared]].
