→Hitchhiking out
Take the red metro line to Anghel Saligny, the last stop in direction east. If you leave the station, you are right at the beginning of the motorway A2 in direction Constanţa.
In October 2019, user [[User:Movethathoof|MovethatHoof]] was hitching this way to Turkey via Constanţa and had a very easy time getting a ride. Just beyond the Metro station a good deal of the approaching traffic exited onto a road that peels off the highway into the adjoining neighbourbood, and beyond that there is a roundabout taking a further chunk. He thus walked 500 meters to a second roundabout, one that Googlemaps made seem that there might be a stoplight (which is there, but does not function). Still, most of the traffic by that point continues farther on the highway, and within fifteen minutes he had a ride to Constanţa!
=== North towards [[Ploiesti]], [[Brasov]] ===
Take bus nr. 783 towards Otopeni Airport (e.g. from Piata Unirii, Piata Romana or Piata Victoriei) and get off at the stop called 'Aleea Privighetorilor'. You can hitchhike right at the busstop.
Note that this road is an old road towards Ploiesti and some kilometers to the east there is a (new) highway, but many people still use it to go to Ploiesti or further north. Plus this road goes through some villages and therefore cars are not driving very fast and have plenty of opportunities to stop.
