In some mid-sized cities like tampico, oaxaca, pachuca there are no transit roads and you have to cross the city. Taking a bus makes things easier.
The Guia Roji road atlas with the maps of the major cities is maybe worth the 100 Pesos.

The best way to hitchhike in Mexico is to go to the petrol stations and talk with the customers (and even if you Spanish is good, try to speak with a foreign accent ;). Some petrol station in the north states don't allow people do that, but you can try to speak with the manager, it works sometime. Otherwise, just stay on the cashier of the petrol station, or at the door of the food store or anything else (they can't forbid you that), and ask.

== Hitchhiking in Mexico for Single Women ==
One of the great things of hitchhiking in Mexico is that even if you travel alone, you rarely have to hitch-hike alone, because hitchhiking is such a common activity among locals. For single females, joining the colourfully clothed "crowds" “crowds” of locals when they jump on the back of a pick-up truck not only adds to the fun, but also your safety.
This is especially handy as in certain areas -like in the North, around Chihuahua- men will take you for a prostitute (no matter if you have a large bag and totally look like a foreigner).
