Another spot is an on-ramp on the A27 near the ''Veemarkthallen''. Take bus #5 from central station towards ''Voordorp''. Get off at ''Kemal Ataturkstraat'' and take bus #77 towards [[Bilthoven]]. Get off at P+R Veemarkt. [[User:Europeangirl|Europeangirl]] usually uses this spot and it takes her between 1 to 30 minutes to get a ride. [[User:RedExergy|RedExergy]] heavily recommends this spot as well. Cars do not drive fast and it is really easy and safe for drivers to pull over and stop.
'''UPDATE:''' As of October 2014 there is no more brokedown lane making difficult for cars to stop. [[User:ronaldsnb|Ron]] used this place many times in the past going towards Germany or Belgium and always worked great. Instead of a short wait (or no waiting at all) I had to wait a couple of hours to find a ride.
Alternatively there you can take bus 55 direction Maartensdijk and get off at stop 'Nieuwe wetering' From there you are able to walk to a petrol station directly on the A27. Beware though, you have to walk for about 1 kilometer next to the motorway and a hitchhiker once got a 90 euro ticket for that, other than that it's a great starting place to go south direction [[Paris]] (A27) as well as [[Luxembourg]] (A2) (Note: Looking at the satellite image on Google Maps, there seems to be some bush-bush between the A27 and the railway parallel to it, walking in this strip as far as possible from the A27 '''may''' just keep you out of view!)
