Hitchhiking is very common in '''Israel'''. [[Hitchhiking]] is often done by pointing to the ground with the hand far from the body, <!-- maybe someone has a nice picture of this? --> instead of raising a thumb. But possibly raising a thumb will be understood as well. Hitchhiking in Israel is usually done without a [[sign]], since stopping in almost all junctions is possible. An exception for this is the new Road 6, in which stopping in only possible on on-ramps and [[petrol stations]].
