Asked around for one hour or so with a sign with "Lyon" written on it. Paradoxically, this service area is so close to Lyon that nobody was going there, all the people were just taking a break before heading to further destinations. I gave up and walked to the nearby train station (25/30 min walk) and took the train for Lyon-Perrache―BepisFresh

Service station with lots and lots of truck where you can even grab a coffee on the goI was holding a sign with "France" written on it and I tried both asking to the truck drivers and standing thumbs-up on the exit. Sadly, most of the truck drivers were going back to Turin. I got lucky to find a really kind polish driver that was going all the way to Troyes. My goal was to reach Lyon so he dropped me in a service area just outside the city

Very very big toll ! My precedent ride dropped me just after the tollgate, where the trucks rest. I tried asking them but they were not allowed to take hitchhikers :( and people speed up after the toll so they were not really seeing me. So I crossed the toll to go just before (be careful doing this so that the cars don't crush you haha), and people were seeing me better. But even if there were a lot of cars I still waited 30 min on this side of the toll, then a nice guy from another toll entry called me and took me further haha―Anonymous

I was on the side in the grass, between the parking and the road, there is place for cars to stop and it's safe. Lots of cars but I waited 1 hour until a nice person stopped, maybe because it was early and people were going to work and were late ? My ride took me to the huge peage before Lyon (St Quentin-Fallavier), where it was a bit dangerous because I had to go inside the peage. So maybe try to go further than Lyon to avoid this !Also this spot leads to 2 different directions, Lyon and Valence, so it's better with a sign I guess.

I was there on a Sunday afternoon and I wanted to go in the direction of Dijon/ Paris.There was a lot of traffic but after about one hour I found somebody.
This place is perfect for going to Lyon or the sorroundings!
