Waited with a sign saying "A4 Metz". I got two cars stopping for me, both going to Reims. I ended up taking the second car―Urbanibm

Good to get to the next gas station, only local traffic―Urbanibm

Aiming for Paris, got there at 10 for Strasbourg by train to Saverne + foot, almost no traffic until 11. Many workers who won't take anyone in their service car. Also lots of people going not very far or to Metz / Nancy. Some truck drivers but no luck with them.Got a ride at 12 to Paris suburbs by a guy who picked a car in Germany. He wasn't supposed to stop there so I was lucky.
Overall I don't know if it's a good spot or if I was lucky this time but it worked !

We were trying to get a ride to get into A3, which later connects to A1 (we are going to Köln). We decided to try this spot since was quite close from our accommodation, but no luck, only 1 car stopped to tell us that we better go to Port de la Chapelle, as here we wouldn’t find a ride. There’s not many space for a car to stop, as is after a round point and drivers are more worried about the traffic lights around.―Anonymous

I was really lucky and got picked up by a guy who hitchhiked a bunch in his life and he brought me to a better place.Wouldn’t really recommend unless you can’t get out of Paris

Single male, no French, big laugh but started to disappear after 5 hours. I arrived this place at 14.00. FIRST DAY, I waited 4 hours until I decided to set my tent. I tried everything, sign with "Lyon, Sud de Paris, Paris", thumb, askimg around and nothing. Plenty of cars, actually ton of them but no one was taking me. As you get closer to Paris you see that "Parisian" nonwelcoming attitude. I set my tent at the north western end of the Aire, next to where truck restpoints were. Nobody bothered me. Asked Mcdonals for cardboards and they gave me some. Chill place as I think they are kind of used to hitchhikers. And second day, I started early and tried to catch early birds. After 1 hour with sign of Lyon I got back to Paris. First I wanted to avoid Paris and hoping to find a long distance ride who was also gonna skip the city. But as the suffering progressed, I understood that I dont have the luxury to make a wish. After 2 hours, two hitchhiker girls came next to me. we chatted a little bit, I told them I was waiting here for 8 hours now and told them they have more chance then me, they found a ride 5 minutes later. They asked people. After few more hours bees started to attack me so I changed my position. this cursed land doesnt wanted me in their premises. When I came back I saw a couple who was doing the thumbs up in my old spot. Talked with them! They were cool and I stood a little front of them for an hour. I didnt wanted to spent another day in this gas station so I gave up to hitch to the closest bus stop and move to Paris. Right before I leave the gas station, this crazy french chick Illen stopped in front of me with a handbrake! She asked me where, and I said anywhere! She took me to a train station in Paris, Pierrefitte Stains. Then I took the D train to south from there. It is lovely how universe giving you small surprises in these frustrating moments :D So total 9 hours of waiting time. A lot of cars, but they are not picking. A hard spot for a single male woth no french. Good luck out there stalker!―whiterabbit

Well intentioned driver misunderstood my request for a service station on A1 and took me here instead. All Taxis/livery drivers or rental car returns, one took pity on me and got me to the airport so I could find a way back to A1.―Streamrider

Beware of drovers heading to the airport who want to help, wait for a ride going further north to catch a good service station for long distance.―Streamrider

Was a bit slow at 08:00am. Delivery driver was going a short distance but thought he could get me to a better spot - traffic had other plans.―Streamrider

This spot is really not good. Most of cars here are taxis, We were very lucky to get such good lift―piotras

I agree that it's a really weird spot and it was mostly locals but there's space to stand at the side of the turnaround (if a bit windy, also no shelter, so not a spot for bad weather) and cars can stop too. With a sign to Paris we (2ppl) found a ride to Aulnay within half an hour and from there taking the train into Paris proper was pretty easy (and cheap.)―thebeekeeper

Long to reach, just like all the good spots to get out of Paris.I also had three offers for a ride to Meaux, which can be interesting since cars have to cross the toll to get there.
