Worked surprisingly well at night, there is place to stop at the entrance of the roundabout but I can imagine if the road is full it will be harder to manage for the drivers.

Got dropped here at 9PM, still a bit of traffic, but 80% of the cars went to Narbonne/Montpellier. I got tons of offers. For my first offer to the south I had to wait 60mins. So I would say it's a 4/5 spot towards south but definitely 5/5 for northbound.

Not a good stop in the roundabout for cars to stop safely when there is a lot of traffic.

This is one of those places where the saying “if someone wants to stop, they will stop” really applies. It’s not ideal, but it’s far from the worst either. Drivers can see you from a relatively long distance, and there’s a fair amount of space for them to pull over.

There is a lot of cars some Spanish some from Netherlands but most of them are French so it’s best to know French.
First day we could find no one to go with towards Spain so we slept under a trees close to gas station.
Second day we asked for one hour and we met Spanish dudes and they took us close to Perpignan.

Waited infront of the green thing before the toll station.
Two hikers picked me up and offered me to take me to the train station in Narbonne.

A lot of traffic. We stood behind the toll station with a Perpignan sign. After 10 minutes we had a ride. If you want to get on the a9 this is a really good option. I don’t know if it is reachable by foot

Cars have some place to stop and mostly locals, I (one boy) got a ride super fast to Palau del vidre, but Argelès is probably also easy.

Good spot, waited a bit longer than expected, but worth it. A couple took us to Perpignan, directly in front of our accomodation. We (2) had a sign Perpi, because of space in our notebook.

Difficult to reach we had to cross a street with lots of traffic. But got picked up really fast. Good to go too Argelès-sur-Mer

A lot of the Cars go to Narbonne.
Not ideal if you want too go to Perpignan.

Good if you are heading south.
For traveling north to Montpelier, i wouldn't suggest this. Took almost 2 hours. Cars are slow when exiting the peage but then speed up rapidly to cross into their preferred lane, and as the northbound side is on the left, it's difficult for them to stop. Got a trucker ignore all the mess behind him who picked me up, luckily.
