I have been told that hitchiking in Florida is illegal.

However, when I passed through last year I didn't have any trouble with the cops.

I have heard different stories.

I usually hitch down the I-95 SOUTH and ran into another traveller and had just gotten a written warning from a florida state trooper.

We talked for a bit and made our way up north to Asheville and we later found out he had a warrant for VAGRANCY.

How can you get dicked with by the authorities just for 'loitoring' at a rest stop?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that what a rest stop is for?

would you cut that out already. add people to your MS on MS, not here.


I have a lot of fond memories from rest stops...
 
yep, that's what they're for... but only for the capitalist fuckers in their petro-suckers. you're not 'cooperating' if you're walking.


OMAIR- if you are trying to get someone to delete your account, as per your earlier questions, why don't you message the siteboss and ask?
or just keep pissin people off.

i never had a problem with rest stops.. but i still don't know how or why it would be illegal to stand there and loiter...


i mean shit.


it's a fuckin REST STOP


for cryin out loud.




is it really a punishable offense?
 
Hitchhiking is illegal in just about every state, but the hitchin laws dont matter when you choose not to obey. Its illegal in IL where i live and i do it all the time with no hassle. This is only the second case ive heard of someone getting in trouble for this, the first being a family whos car broke down and while hitching to a gas station got arrested. Le sigh.

thanks a lot for the info. I have been doing a bit of research hearing there fidning loopholes about hitching. I've hitched across the country several times and never had a problem until this. I never even knew that police enforced these laws.


thanks for the reply.
