== Hitchhiking out ==
There's really no distinct "center" of the city, but hitching out from anywhere inside the I-285 perimeter is unlikely. It's highly suggested that you take transportation to the station that is furthest in the direction that you want to go, and then you may want to take commuter buses even further, as the transfer is free.
=== North towards [[Dahlonega]] (GA-400) ===
[http://www.legendaryrob.com/ Legendary Rob] suggests the Pleasantdale Rd on-ramp (Transfer to bus 124 from Doraville Station). I found this spot unsuitable as it had no wide shoulder on the onramp. It was only possible to solicit ride from cars arriving from one direction as they slowed for the right-hand turn. As this exit is so close to the city centre, most drivers are local workers and shoppers.
There are excellent wide shoulders at Pleasant Hill Rd (Exit 104 - Bus 10 from Doraville Stationand a bit of a walk, though a good spot) and Discover Mills (Exit 107). Seek a ride to at least [[Commerce]], GA. Also, ask people to take you to the Mall of Georgia, a few exits away. It draws many long distance drivers for gas, shopping, and food. Asking in the stations here can yield some nice, long distance rides.
=== South and others (I-75) ===
If you're stuck in the city, there's a nice spot (complete with red light) at the corner of 10th St. and Techwood Drive where you can find cars entering both I-85 and I-75.

== Sleep ==
Sleeping in parks and anywhere else in the city without accommodation is highly unadvised. If you ever find yourself needing a place to stay, get in touch with [[User:Zac Stewart|Zac]]. If that fails, You will be best off finding a quiet place to crash in the Buckhead Community, which is the northernmost area of the city limits. Please note that if you search for Buckhead, Atlanta on Google maps, by error it gives you Bankhead – somewhere you really, '''really''' don't want to sleep.
