There are several options to hitch out of Warsaw in western direction, and the option you choose depends on your location in the city and your personal preferences.
'''Option #1: S8 onramp (busstop) Warszawa Zachód-Powązkowska'''
This option involves the least walking and is quite close to the city centre and the western districts. To get there you have two different possibilities:
[[FileTake bus 103, 122, 180, 186 or 409 and get off at '''Gen. Maczka''' (Note:E77bus stops only on request here!).jpg|thumb|alt=E77 road Hitch right from the bus stop where bus 186 in final direction ''Szczęśliwice''stops. Holding a sign A2 makes the difference to get the ride out. The S8 starts here and eventually changes into the A2 to [[E77Łódź]]. [http://goo.gl/maps/kizfT Streetview here]. Next bigger rest stop on the A2 highway is in Biskupice - MOP Brwinów Południe.  '''Option #2: A2 highway service station MOP Brwinów Południe / Mcdonalds'''  (Opposite side of higway are some lakes. Search maps for Wake Family Brwinów) Ride a train to railway station ''Brwinów''. When you walk down the stairs of the platform turn right and walk direction north. The road is first called Rynek, later Biskupica, and the road number is 720. Keep following it until you pass the A2 with a tunnel, then take the first road left and follow it until the service station. The distance to walk is about 3.5 km.Google maps [https://www.google.lv/maps/place/Lotos/@52.1555185,20.6843505,17z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0000000000000000:0x0b81cddde3d7575f link here]] 
'''#1:'''Take the tram 8, 10, 26 direction ''Os. Górczewska'' and get off at ''Ciepłownia Wola''. There you can get in the Or bus 713 743 from Cmentarz Wolski till Wolica Plochocina end stop and get off at '''''Mory''''' than walk to Biskupice 5 km (The first look a bus stop on public transport zone 2 (''strefa II'')). Walk back around 200m in the direction your bus came from, until the on-ramp of the A2. Or go up by the ramp list some buses goes to highway E77 , little bit further there wil be separate zone where cars can other final stop. Better hold big sign with your destination!)
'''#2:''' Especially during rush hour, there is a faster way to get to the on-ramp at the A2: Take the ''KM3'' train in direction of [[Łowicz]] or [[Sochaczew]] (sometimes only going to [[Błonie]]) and get of at the station ''Gołąbki''. From the pedestrian crossing over the tracks you can already spot the highway's noise barrier to the north-west. Follow the road on the northern side of the train station to the north, turn right at the next crossing and the road should lead you through an under-bridge under the highway after a couple of minutes. After, you cross the road and arrive at the on-ramp described under ''#1''. The whole walk is around 1,5km.
You can take the trains from platform #3 at ''Warszawa Śródmieście'' which is next to the Central Station, but '''not''' the same! It is more East of the Central Station and South to the Palace of Culture and Science. Have a look at the timetables and different stations from where to take the trains on [http://www.mazowieckie.com.pl/site.php5/Show/132.html the website], since they run often just one or two times in an hour.
Tickets cost probably a few zlotys, make sure you buy one before entering the train (alternatively you can buy one in the train in the first car).
'''Option #2: S8 onramp (busstop) Warszawa-Powązkowska'''
This option is best when you have to get from the northern districts of the city to a good spot. There's no walking involved, you'll be able to get out of the bus and start hitching right away!'Option #3: S8 onramp Warszawa Zachód'''

[httpTo get there you have two different possibilities://goo.gl/maps/kizfT Streetview here].(I used this spot in July 2018 and absolutely the best spot it is for Poznan. just waited 3 min and even the driver told me how convenient spot it was.)

Or bus 743 till Połczyńska parking + 105 goes till Źródlana 02 and than wallk to Biskupice 7 km
Or hitchike road 92 from Tesco Warsawa Bemowo till Święcice and walk
 '''Option #5: The old National road / longer traveling time since you cross many villages92 slower option'''  
If you wish to take the old main road DK92 (not advisable if you want to travel fast...) you can use a place which takes a bit more time to reach:
A good place to hitch from near the bus stop ''Dzierżoniowska''(you need to press STOP for that busstop). To get here, either take bus 114 from metro ''Młociny'' in the direction ''Młociny-UKSW'', or take bus 181 from the metro station ''Plac Wilson'' in the direction ''Cmentarz Północny''. Once you get off the bus at ''Dzierżoniowska'', you can see the main road going north and there are several places to stand Best is traficlights next to McDonald).
Best stops betwen Warsaw - Olsztyn :(dont agree for Płońsk) Glinojeck (on roundbound), Mława, Nidzica (on trafic lights cross),
