On ramps to freeways and interstates are prime realty as long as the driver has room to pull over. A good spot to stand usually is beside the ''no pedestrians'' sign.
Make sure that there is lots of room for a car to pull over '''safely''' and still allow other cars to pass. A shoulder large enough to safely park a truck is best. It is becoming easier to locate a safe spot by looking at [http://maps.google.com/ Google Maps] or Google Earth before you depart.
In many places in the United States, on ramps are the '''only''' legal option for places to thumb. This includes the entire state of Tennessee. In all countries in Europe you can legally hitch on a slip-road leading onto the motorway, '''as long as you stand in front of the motorway sign.'''
