=== South towards [[Joplin]]===
The intersection of Missouri Hwy 58 and I-49 (AKA US Hwy 71 ) in between Belton and Raymore is a great place to catch a long distance ride. Many people heading south will stop for gas/food and get back on at this ramp. If you catch a short distance ride several miles south to Peculiar, there is a truck stop there too.
Avoid going south on US Hwy 69. [[User:Whisperingofthestars|Jason]] got a ride from [[Lawrence]] to KC to hitch south on the US 69. Cops pulled over within 10 minutes, told him that hitchhiking is [[laws|illegal]] in the United States of America. Whaa, after 5 weeks hitchhiking the States, now they tell him? Hit the onramp again after they left, they returned, threatened with arrest. Taken to the state line and dumped on a countryside closed road, 5 miles away from anything. Sweet! Thank you, Kansas City!
Thus the US 71 (I-49) south is probably most advisable if you're heading south.
