Maybe I got lucky but asking the cars at the stop light got me a ride really fast, as opposed to the other side of the street. Not far but out of the city centre―Calebblor

I think it’s mostly local traffic. I also think drivers don’t think they know they can pullover into the little exit. Left here walked across the crosswalk and started asking cars at the red light―Calebblor

Good place for getting out of Lille, cars have room to stop and they usually go slow thanks to the traffic lights. We found somebody to take us to Paris straight away, however we were very lucky, they said people of Lille aren’t really used to hitchhikers (? I dont know if thats true).―Kuthvi

Seems like the perfect spot, has quite some traffic, but absolutely no one seemed to go to Lille, which genuinely baffled me. I think I just had bad luck maybe. Inside the gas station its very nice though, it was recently re-built as I was told and there's a fair amount of outlets and seating, as well as food and toilets etc. etc.―B5Scheuert

Single male, July 2026. I started waiting around 09.15. Lots of cars, and a small place to stop. Actually good stop specially in the morning. I waited 30 mins with a sign "Aire de Phalempin - A1". Thank you Anna!!―whiterabbit

Was heading towards Bruxelles but after 1 hour trying under the heatwave I was close to let it go when a super nice guy stopped and offer me a lift till Amsterdam! I changed my plan and voilà!I think the spot under the bridge is better than thé previous one because you can get shelter from the sun, and people can see where to stop... Don't know if a good spot for Bruxelles in the end...

Was heading towards Belgium and didn't want to enter Paris. Had a pannel "Vers Bruxelles" which was quite ambitious but in the end it worked, a ddrievr took me all the way until Lille, avoiding crossing Paris with public transportation under the heatwave. I put myself at the end of the pétrole station and waited. Good traffic on the station―Adrien44

Great spot. Just ask to the people, some are going west and some east, even some of them north Normandy to Granville.I waited for 45mn and then found two cars at the same time for Lille.
I had a sign Rouen.

moved here after waiting closer to the Ferry Port roundabout for a bit. Got a lift after an hour or so with someone. They'd bought the wrong ticket and had no leftover money so we paid for some of the new car ticket. c'est la vie.While on the ferry we asked for lifts to Paris, but nobody was going (nor did it seem like anyone else but our lift would have picked us up from the street - maybe lucky!), so we went to Lille to stay the night. Successfully asked someone on the street to stay at their place.

it's an ok spot for cars to stop. we were not waiting long. our lift was not going very far, but took us to a roundabout on the A1. In retrospect, we should have asked them to drive an extra 10 minutes to a service station, as the roundabout (and nearby toll booth) were not good for us to hitch from (3 people)―Alifeee
