Illegal to solicit a ride, so dont get caught with a sign or your thumb stuck out. (its not illegal to stand on the side of the road, as long as its before the "freeway begins here" sign) Honestly ive hitched through many states where its illegal to hitch. The most they do is run your name and tell you to get off the road. They understand your "situation" for the most part. Ive purposely gone out onto the freeway a few times, (and started walking with my thumb out) because 1. more chances to get rides 2. the police are most likely just going to give me a ride to the next offramp or further. This is a last resort kinda thing though.

That being said, the last time I hitched out of Reno, it was kind of a bitch to get out, and multiple cops stopped to run our names/give us a hard time.
