'''Las Vegas''' is a city in [[Nevada]]. The legality of [[hitchhiking]] is tricky, make sure to not stand "in a roadway" "exclusive of the berm or shoulder." Standing on the shoulder or sidewalk of a roadway and sticking out your thumb should be fine, still it's probably better to not be hitchhiking too openly when you see police in the distance (or nearer by). The interstate (highway) has a different jurisdiction, you might not want to walk too far up the on ramp.
Note: there is a fairly frequent SDX bus that can help you get away from the Strip.
=== Route 95 North towards [[Beatty]], [[Death Valley]], [[Carson City]], [[Reno]] === Route US 95 You can take the 106 bus (slow) or the Centennial Express (CX) bus (faster) towards Centennial Heights. There's an on-ramp not too far from the terminal. . === North on I-15 towards Salt Lake City, Utah === The most northern part of the city right before you leave there is a rest stop/truck stop at exit 54 for the Las Vegas Speedway. This is an excellent place to go north. This is the last chance for people leaving Las Vegas to stock up and there is really only one direction for them to travel and that is north on I-15. === South/East towards Interstate 40 (Flagstaff) or [[User:Guaka|guakaPhoenix]] waited ===In Las Vegas there's a relatively short while, to be taken bus that goes all along Tropicana Ave (stops at the Strip too!) that can drop you very close to the next on-ramp, of 68. The stop is somewhat after Sandhill Road. Just communicate with much less actionthe driver, made he will know. A ticket is 2 Dollars. From the mistake of going back, not getting any on ramp it's pretty easy to catch a ride at all, . Just make sure you bring enough water cause it gets really hot out there and finally decided to walk all the way beyond the freeway part. There still, no one was picking him up you might wait for a long quite some time. Around sunset .. It is easy to catch a guy finally stopped on ride to [[Boulder City]], once there, getting out can be slightly tricky. Keep walking out of town along US 93 until you pass the freewaylast big intersection (Nevada Hwy). Verdict: leave earlyThe shoulders are wide, take anything but traffic is going north, and fast here; you may catch slower traffic merging from the intersection. It may be wise to use an extra large hitchhiking sign here for the swift traffic to be prepared able to read. Unfortunately there is no better place to walk catch a lotride than this. No problem with police though, even walking on 95, at At least beyond you will be visible to any and all traffic leaving Vegas in this direction. === South towards [[Los Angeles]] ===On West Tropicana Ave about a 15 minutes walk from the point where the road ceases Strip (0.8 Miles) there's a truck stop around Wild Wild West Truck Plaza. Lot's of Trucks are leaving to be Los Angeles from here. Just hang out here for a full on highwaywhile and talk to the drivers...
