<map lat='36.114581' lng='-115.169678' zoom='10' view='3' float='right' /> Las Vegas is a city in Nevada. The legality of hitchhiking is tricky, make sure to not stand "in a roadway" "exclusive of the berm or shoulder." Standing on the shoulder or sidewalk of a roadway and sticking out your thumb should be fine, still it's probably better to not be hitchhiking too openly when you see police in the distance (or nearer by). The interstate (highway) has a different jurisdiction, you might not want to walk too far up the on ramp.
Hitchhiking out
Note: there is a fairly frequent SDX bus that can help you get away from the Strip.

There still, no one was picking him up for a long time. Around sunset a guy finally stopped on the freeway. Verdict: leave early, take anything going north, and be prepared to walk a lot. No problem with police though, even walking on 95, at least beyond the point where the road ceases to be a full on highway.
