Fenggang is a key transit point from West to East coasts. This can be seen in the image below.

Then, once you've been picked up, if your driver isn't going to Taitung, communicate to them that you want to be dropped off at the location below, in Fenggang (楓港, Feng1gang3)。 In fact, it might be easiest to say that you want to be dropped off at this CPC petrol station (you can show them via google maps link [https://goo.gl/maps/TQYwytpVEBH2 here]), which is across the road from the hitching spot.
The map below displays where to stand to hitch from Fenggang to Taitung. Note, if you're coming from Kenting make sure you DON'T stand on the entry ramp to the highway on the south side of Fenggang. There are barely any cars there!

Here's a pic of what it looks like from this hitching spot (stand on the 'X'). All cars going to Taitung will go onto the ascending ramp.
