=== North towards [[Berlin]], [[Cottbus]] ===
Take tram line 13 (Strassenbahn) until ''Friedensstrasse''. At the crossing (you'll recognize a McDonald's sign), turn right into the ''Hansastrasse'', pass the McDonald's and walk underneath the railway bridge. <map lat='51.07538050661171' lng='13.74114990234375' zoom='13' view='0' float='right' /> After 1 km (and passing some small private gardens) you will find a Shell petrol station. In front of the petrol station entry there's enough space to stop cars that go to the highway. The ''Hansastrasse'' is an access to the [[A4 (Germany)|A4]], in both directions, but most cars are going north from here.
Maybe 200m after the Shell station is another gas station and also space on the road where people can stop if you just stand near the road. Most locals go there, as it is cheaper, you might miss both some company cars (since companies sometimes have special payment cards for shell) but also the snobbish people going to shell.
There are also often hitchhikers right behind the railway station ''Dresden-Neustadt''. Be aware that this is a common meeting point for users of http://www.mitfahrgelegenheit.de so there ''might'' be a higher possibility that people want money for a lift.
