Because of Schengen agreement, there are are '''no border control points ''' between Latvia and Lithuania / Estonia.
=== Roads ===
Weather in Latvia can change pretty fast so don't lose hope if rain comes. Hide and wait. Sometimes it's over in 15-20 minutes.
== Personal Experiences ==
''Summer 2018 & 2022: Good and easy hitchhiking experience. You rarely wait a long time and you have a big chance to pass by Latvia, or get into the capital by one or two cars. I did nearly 200km in one drive with a guy going from Lithuania to Riga. Afterwards took A3 to Tartu (est). Because there are a lot of people going directly to Tallinn from Riga you have a good chances make all that trip in one car. I was going to Tartu, so it was harder but anyway I was there in the same day. The majority of drivers spoke English.'' --
