I have been traveling for years and fortunately during the first days I found this great map. And I am still using it always when I go anywhere by hitchhiking. Please also notice that you can search for gas stations, parking spaces and toilets - and the ones on the highway are always listed --[[User:Windsohn|Windsohn]] ([[User talk:Windsohn|talk]]) 16:02, 29 November 2015 (CET)
