Do as described above, but instead go to the on-ramp on the city side of the motorway. Again a good spot just after a roundabout where cars will have plent of space to stop. If they are only going to Meppel, ask them if they can drop you off at the next service station called [[Bovenboer]]exit 2, Meppel. The service station after that is called [[Haerst]] other two exits (Meppel-Noord and is located just before Zwolle-Zuid) are much harder to get away from. Lots of cars will be If they are going to Zwolle, so be sure not to don't get stucked thereoff at Zwolle-Zuid!The other two on-ramps are perfect to continue hitching.

Another possibility is taking bus 40 or 48 to the stop ''Rotonde Havelterberg''. This drops you off right at exit 5 ''Steenwijk-Zuid''. Here's also a good spot in the direction of Zwolle, with no more exits between here Both on-ramps are about equally frequented, and your choice will pretty much depend on your location in the service station Bovenboercity.

The on-ramp towards Leeuwarden here at Steenwijk-Zuid is a bit harder to access because the road leading there is prohibited for pedestrians, but is also a good spot if you are stranded got dropped off here and don't want to walk through the whole city to the other on-ramp.
