Take the metro to Piaţa Obor, then from there take tram #21 north to the last stop. The tram will turn off the main road into its terminus station, but after getting out of the tram continue walking straight on the main road. You will come to a bridge after a large market called ''Europa''. Hitchhiking here is possible, but you will have to compete with other people who are standing alongside the road to flag down minibuses. A better option is to continue walking north for about three kilometers until after the Bucharest ring road, where all cars going northeast are isolated.
=== East towards [[Constanţa]], [[Vama Veche]] (A2) {{Aro|2}} ===
Take the red metro line to Anghel Saligny, the last stop in direction east. If you leave the station, you are right at the beginning of the motorway A2 in direction Constanţa.
* The buses are running between 5 am and 11 pm
* 1 Ticket is 1.5 Lei (0.30 EUR)
* Controllers in Romania are very sneaky. They don't get on at bus stops but instead they go on at traffic lights. So that way no one can get out of the bus and they can catch people easier. They usually go in near the front so if you want a chance of escaping them then sit right next to the front door and dash out really quickly when the door is open for them to get on. Otherwise, if you get caught try saying you have no money and that you are traveling by autostop(romanian word for hitchhiking) around the world with no money. Having a hitchhiking sign and backpack would help your story :) This worked once for Luke and Sma. Controllers just gave back our passports and left us alone whereas a few minutes earlier they were threatening to call the police.
* Buses have a special program for night also. They start their route from "Piata Unirii" between 23 pm and 6 am. The buses start the routes at sharp hours.
