Experiences
One hitchhiker, Eripson, found the state to be very good for hitching when he visited the city of Asheville in December 2010. Even with the snow he managed to find a long distance ride into Tennessee. However, one busker that he met along the way recounted his experience of waiting eight hours and eventually giving up when he tried to hitch out of Charlotte. This, however, had been the busker's first time hitchhiking and it's likely that he knew not some of the appropriate techniques for soliciting rides.
Hitchhiking was slightly above average. I encountered a good bit of poverty in many areas and several creepy experiences with perverted men and women. North Carolina was also the only state where someone pulled over only to refuse to give me a ride if I didn't front gas money. One of few states with mountains and nice beaches.
