Signs for hitchhiking in Israel

There’s no much of a sign language. At least most drivers know of any.

A little bit that does exist:

  • Raising you arm = I want a ride. The details vary and don’t carry any special meaning. A raised thumb is not common, but not rude either (might be interpreted as thumbs-up, which is weird).
  • A common alternative is holding a sign with your destination.
  • Driver pointing downwards = his destination is very near. He would stop, but you probably don’t want to take a ride with him.

Here’s a typical position (source: solitarywanderer.com):
