At the same time, the travellers who have chosen this kind of travel, also risk to run into dangerous criminal-drivers, to be mutilated in road accident, to suffer from robbers etc. For this reason, for a long time already there are various established carsharing, or smart rideshare rules.
Autostop traveling is seldom is illegal, but many countries have the legal rules, where it's possible "to stop for to stoping drivers" (for example, not on highway, near to crossroads, at bus stops), therefore study the current legislation in territory of the given country, and also with the punishment for «non-observance of rules» and «hindrance to movement».
