Hitchhiking. DTLHS (talk) 18:49, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

I can find support for its use in English, but only for a specific form of hitchhiking that uses coupons to pay drivers. I have altered the definition and cited this. Kiwima (talk) 21:48, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

Is it a genericized trademark? DTLHS (talk) 21:55, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

Hard to say - the programme (instituted by the government) was dubbed autostop, but then, that is the word for hitchhiking in may European countries. Kiwima (talk) 19:47, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
