Or you can walk to customs, around 15 minutes, head towards the "checkpoint". Once past customs and you have your passport stamped, you come out in a bus station, you will need a ticket to board one, but you can also follow the "walking man" sign. It leads towards the bridge that makes the border. You will may be stopped by several police officers stating that you can't walk to Malaysia. To all of them say Say that you know what you are doing, that someone will pick you up there. Don't mention you are hitchhiking, they will just keep you longer telling you it's forbidden, and there's nowhere to pull over. Just stick to the pick-up story. Walk along the narrow side of the road, one minute, to the center of the bridge where there will be a large enough space for cars to stop. Hitch from there. There's a lot of traffic and you won't wait long. Edit: there was so much traffic that walking was literally faster, I got to car check point but had to get up to bus terminal to get stamped and then inside Malaysia I hitchhiked in. Not easy to get a ride from the mall area of JB sentral... More advice is appreciated.
