North towards Barcelona
Going into direction Barcelona is possible at a drive-up way in the north of the town. Drop out at tram (tranvía) station Universidad Politécnica. Hitchhiker Buzz waited right beside the metal university tower. There is plenty of traffic leaving town in direction north.
South towards Alicante, Sevilla
There is a roundabout just where the motorway starts in Valencia. This is a good place where cars can stop but it is at the edge of the city. You can get rides to Alicante, Granada and Sevilla, either by the 'national motorway' (A7) through the center or the toll-motorway along the coast (AP7).
The roundabout is located on the street '"Ave. de Ausias March'" in the south of the city, close to the river. It is a 15-20 minute walk from the main train station, and metro stations Jesus or Xativa. See here a map of the location of the roundabout in Valencia.
