'''Germany''' is a member state of the [[European Union]] as well as the [[Schengen Agreement]]. It is a great country for [[hitchhiking]]. Just make sure you get on the ''Autobahn'' (motorway)! There it is best to get to a ''Raststätte'' ([[service area]]) where drivers can legally stop and get from one to another. You will often find [[maps]] with the motorways and the service areas along them. On most on ramps you will get also reasonably fast a ride. Just make sure not to end up on a "Schnellstrasse" (leading to the on ramp), where cars go fast and cannot stop.
