Cultural note: Watch out for Romanian drivers who may attempt to charge you for the ride and/or drop you off in a remote area if you don't pay. Make clear before you sit in a Romanian car that you are not going to pay: ''"Is the lift free? / I can't pay." - "E gratis? / N-am bani sa va dau."''

=== East towards [[Bratislava]], [[Győr]] and [[Budapest]] {{European Route Number|60}} ===
There is an OMV [[petrol station hitchhiking|petrol station]] with a Mc Donalds on the motorway to Budapest where you can easily find a ride to Bratislava or further into [[Slovakia]].
''It is easy to reach this gas station. A sign (I had one for Bratislava) is useful as I just walked to the station holding my sign and looking around a bit to find a good spot to stand, and a driver came to me and offered a ride.''
cyclebear june 2014: "its easy to get there - but not a very good spot to wait with a sign. the junction is very narrow and people cant really stop. fortunatly there is enough crazy people on the road that stop for anyone and anywhere :)"
Most of the cars passing in this petrol station are coming off the motorway or going to the airport. You can get more cars going to [[Slovakia]] or [[Hungary]] if you take the first ride to the next petrol station on the motorway, named Göttlesbrunn, which is just before road splits into the E58 towards Bratislava and the E60 towards Budapest. The E60 road enters Hungary at the [[Hegyeshalom-Nickelsdorf border crossing]].
