There are a few major music festivals that take place in the Ozark area over summer.
== Roads ==
*Shoulders
:Shoulders are rarely built at the edge of towns, making it difficult for people to pull over. The situation is improving in recent years in larger towns such as [[Fayetteville]] and [[Hot Springs]] but on most two lane roads, finding places for people to pull over is difficult.
*Pedestrian Rights
:All interstates prohibit pedestrians. Virtually all other roads allow pedestrians.
*Interchanges
:[[split-traffic interchange|Split-traffic interchanges]] are few and far between here when crossing non controlled access roads. Most if not all interchanges between two four lane roads do not require drivers to slow down, making it difficult for them to pick you up.
== Law ==
Because the definition does not explicitly mention the shoulder, it is probably best to hitch from the grass and not on the shoulder of the road.
Corruption is not unheard of among law enforcement in Arkansas. Mena county is the most racist place in the modern United States; it is rumored among locals that the murder of several african americans in 2001 was committed by members of the Sheriff's office of Mena County. Madison County is famous for a marijuana grow operation owned by it's sheriff. The sheriff died under suspicious circumstances; it was suspected to be an assassination. More information about the subject can be found in the book "When Money Grew On Trees."
=== Federal Districts ===
'''Note''':All land owned regulated by the National Park service prohibits hitchhiking under the Code of Federal Regulations
Title 36 section 4.31: Hitchhiking or soliciting transportation is prohibited
''except in designated areas and under conditions established by the superintendent.''
