== JFK airport ==
You don't ''have'' to take the 5 US$ Airtrain to get there or to get from JFK to the city. Take a [http://www.jfk-airport.net/bus.html local bus] from terminal 4, you can pay 2,25 US$ for the ride or if you get an unlimited card (7 days are worth it if you're staying 4 or more days) you can use that.
== Law ==
§1157. Pedestrians soliciting rides, or business.
(a) No person shall stand in a roadway for the purpose of soliciting a ride, or to solicit from or sell to an occupant of any vehicle.
(c) No person shall occupy any part of a state highway, except in a city or village, in any manner for the purpose of selling or soliciting.
'''NOTE''' New york fails to define the term "roadway" in Article 27 § 802 Definitions. Stay off the paved portion of the road and you will likely not be bothered by police.
'''NOTE''' subsection (c): hitchhiking is a form of solicitation. While the police generally don't mind hitchhikers, it may be interpreted that hitchhiking is ''illegal'' even while on the shoulder when you are outside the limits of a "city or village."
