Good spot to stop someone who goes to Arles or maybe further. With a sign Arles it was easy. There we continued through Nimes, Montpellier and Perpignan.―Anonymous

Direct way to Arles, but on national road, not highway. Young guy took us to nearest town, where we continued through Arles, Nimes, Montpellier and Perpignan.―Anonymous

It's a huge service station, so I wanted at the end where every car was passing by and found a ride to Toulouse! but you can go to a lot of directions!―pollo

Spacious place where people stop for gas or coffee. You can either ask at gas station side or walk a bit down to catch cars and trucks all leaving the area.Though, it took me a long while to catch a ride. Bad-hair day?:)

I waited for 1.5 h until someone stopped. I said just drive right behind the traffic light. There we had enough time to go into the car. Afterwards we drove around the building. I waited in front of the traffic light with a sign (direction Avignion / Salon De Pce)―Anonymous

A truck driver helped me asking around other truck drivers to take me to Nice. It's a big parking lot, it's a great point. Just ask around or use translator, people are very kind here.―Anonymous

We were stood with a sign for “A8 Nice” which was a dodgy move given the circumstances. Everybody was stopped for lunch, and we absolutely needed somebody who was passing Aix-En-Provence because there’s nowhere to stop before there and you don’t want to be caught in the city, the majority of the trafic is headed on the A7 to Marseille so for there you’d have no troubles at all! Eventually we were approached by this lovely hippy family who gave us a ride up the motorway to another service station on the A8.―Paquito

We stood at the exit of the roundabout, right onto the entry of the peage. Got a ride in just under 10 minutes to l’aire de Lançon with a sign saying “A7 SUD”Important to specify north or south cause trafic goes both ways. To get here, ride the bus C2 to the stop Buld’air, then it’s only a short walk. An added bonus is that the bus stop is at an ikea, meaning cardboard for signs is incredibly easy to source!
