Changes

Take a tram #1 or 6 from the city center (for example, from a stop called ''Merķeļa iela'') to the final stop called ''Jugla'' - there you will find a road to the north, you will see there a petrol station, traffic lights, a bus stop (and "McDonald's" in case you want to go to the toilet). It is not the best idea to hitchhike after the speed limit road sign (70) - there, cars are already going quite fast, and stopping a car there can cause a crash. Note, that about 750 metres farther from the traffic lights (after crossing the bridge) there is a nice big [[rest area|lay-by]] where cars stop. If you're heading to [[Estonia]] have an ''EST'' sign - it will make all go a lot quicker.
