* [[User:Drezz|Drezz]] June, 2016: I've tried this Good spot to go to Torino/French Alps and it was really good and actually it’s possible to go in the other directions too - like [[Verona]], [[Venice]]. It’s a petrol station/McD near of the metro station QT8. It’s necessary to walk in Via Collecchio and cross the bridge. There is a park in the end of the bridge and you must follow the path until find a small street called Via Don Luigi Palazzolo and turn right in the road. Around 100 m further you will find the petrol station where you can ask for someone there or you can go directly to the road with a sign. I got a ride directly to [[Chamonix]] (France) and the driver was on his way to [[Geneva]]. This spot is less than 10 minutes walking from the metro station. *[[User:Movethathoof|MovethatHoof]] tried a couple of the above spots in November 2019 and found them very unsatisfactory. The Q8 station had very limited traffic, averaging about 1 car every minute, and the staff, though sympathetic, would not allow him to ask either at the pump or even when people were going into the little convenience store. One might try right on the highway as suggested, but as is usual of Italian highways the guardrails leave little space for standing or stopping. There is at least a little entrance lane from the gas station where a very motivated driver could stop, but then Italians don't often prove themselves very motivated to pick up hitchhikers. As well, of the three lanes of traffic there, the inside lanes are where the drivers bypassing the intersection of Viale Alcide de Gasperi and Viale Renato Serra will be, probably going further, already going faster, and two lanes from the little cranny where they might stop, if they see you in time. The gas station being disappointing as described, Movethathoof decided to try at this slip road, of the above mentioned intersection. Though there was lots of traffic, and people were actually much friendlier in passing than many other places in Italy, those that bothered to motion communicated that they were local, and it needs to be remembered that the traffic passing here can be going in any direction, further diluting your efforts. Frustrated after a few hours, he found the below service area and had a much easier time.
