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

I went to the end of the pétrole station trying to get all the traffic that was pretty low thought...In the end I catch a ride with a truck driver until Limours area avoiding me to enter Paris. Best spot in my opinion to go to Paris, used multiple times, maybe best to ask directly to drivers

Driver saw me carrying my sign in the bathroom, offered a ride all the way to Paris and dropped me by a metro station.―Streamrider

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

Maybe we were lucky but we thought it would be much more difficult to get a ride to Paris from the comments above. We had a sign and waited just before the toll, there is space for cars coming on the right line to stop. A guy going to belgium took us all the way to Paris surrounding, we were two with a dog (on a friday afternoon).―Anonymous

this seems the best way out of Paris without standing on the side of the road. We were 3 people, so we wanted somewhere good. as others say, you can access it via a bus. walk to the end of the wall and through some bushes and voìla. we got a lift to Aire de Ressons, an hour or so north, towards Lille. there were lots of people here.―Alifeee

we got picked up fairly fast by someone going to Paris. They dropped us on the outskirts, where we got a bus and a train into the centre.―Alifeee

for us, it was not good. we were 3 people and we waited 5 hours for a lift down the road to Aire de Nemours. if you are alone or 2, it is probably better. two women turned up while we were waiting, they waited 10 minutes for a lift south. it is pretty easy to get to from Paris though.―Alifeee

we were unsure about this one, but fairly quickly someone stopped and took us to Porte d'Italie in the South. We were trying to get to Lyon eventually. a few other people were going other directions.―Alifeee

we were heading for Paris. after not so long, someone stopped who was doing van delivery driving towards Paris. they kindly dropped us right off of the Périphique in Paris.―Alifeee

Good spot but a lot of locals and taxis to that went to the airport…… We were lucky to get a minibus to Brusel. It is a bit tricky to get there the door was not open so we had to go to the end of the fence and around through the Forrest Jungle and that the most dangerous you have to walk on the road where the cars speed up from the gas station to the highway. But is is just a few seconds walk to the station……―NTKtriohitch

We wanted to go to Dunkerque on a Saturday morning (of a weekend where they celebrate the big carnival) to make it to the worldwide-seagull competition and had no luck. No one pulled over despite many cars having the number of that département on their licence plate. It was also freezing (-5°C) which didn’t help so we abandoned.―elisabethhirtz

Easy ride out to A1 toward north and Belgium , some traffic and trafic light for cars to stop. Picked up in 20 with a cardboard that said A1. Should be easy to get north once you are on a highway stop―Anonymous

I already used this spot to go to Lille but it is not that good after all, a lot of people are going to the airport and you can get stuck. Try Aire de Vémars Est if you want to go north it is way better―Mano75
