=== North towards [[Dijon]], [[Paris]] {{European Route NumberE|15}} ===
* You can stop at the traffic lights on the bridge Kitchener-Marchand near Perrache. It can be better to write "Péage" (toll) or [[Villefranche]] (and then, stop at the toll or before.)
* Found a [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Rue+du+Professeur+Dep%C3%A9ret&daddr=dijon&hl=fr&geocode=Fb0sugId0K9IAA%3BFe0n0gIdFPdMACl1lv3vjJ3yRzHQWBSzNM4JBA&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=0&sz=13&sll=45.772073,4.790897&sspn=0.05879,0.154324&ie=UTF8&ll=45.771557,4.790294&spn=0,0.002411&z=19&layer=c&cbll=45.771695,4.790451&panoid=WUVigLDlgfvZbSU7ADGAzA&cbp=12,353.24,,2,1.55 hitchhiker on Streetview!] (please someone make a screenshot before it disappears :) - Entry to A7 at Avenue Victor Hugo, looks like metro Valmy is closest, and between that station and the motorway entrance (about 1,5 km) there might be some more options.
* Where Tunnel de la Duchere / Rue de Bourgogne intersect. There is a great little pull-over place just after the round-about. Closest metro is Gare de Vaise.
=== South towards [[Orange]], [[Nîmes]], [[Marseille]], [[Saint-Étienne]] {{European Route NumberE|15}} ===
* On ''Quai du Docteur Gailleton'' near ''Rue Franklin Roosvelt'' there is a bus stop which makes a great place for cars to pull over. It is very close to metro stop ''Ampère Victor Hugo''. There's plenty of traffic heading to [[Valence]] and [[Orange]], which is a good place to continue further East or West along the coast. Hitchhike on the left lane (cars on the right lane will then turn right...) a bit under the speed camera. <br />Quite fast you can get a ride to nearest [http://maps.hitchwiki.org/?lat=45.6504383704269&lng=4.838533401489258&zoom=15&trip=0&view=0 petrol station], which is situated 12km south - just try hitchhiking with sign "A7 - 12km sud".
* You also might want to try from Square Julien Gras.
In Montluel, go down at the train station. (The bus trip takes 50 min) Then walk direction Pérouges, turn right to direction of Niévroz. You cross under the railway and over the motorway. Looking to the left you see the petrol station you are heading for. The whole way to walk takes about 10-20min. See the place here: [http://maps.google.de/maps?f=d&hl=de&geocode=1972572113067456031,45.845405,5.070403&time=&date=&ttype=&saddr=45.842912,5.07122&daddr=&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=0&sz=14&sll=45.845363,5.062466&sspn=0.026786,0.080338&ie=UTF8&z=14&om=1]
=== East towards [[Chambery]], [[Grenoble]], [[Geneva]] {{European Route NumberE|70}} ===
There is an [[on-ramp]] in Lyon where you can hitch straight onto the motorway to Geneva (A43/ E70). There is a roundabout and a bike-lane where cars can stop for you. Take the metro Line D to Mermoz and walk to Rue Lionel Terray. You'll find a sign for [[Geneva]] here (see also a [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=nl&geocode=&q=Bron+&sll=45.688914,4.886169&sspn=0.505556,0.883026&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Bron,+Rh%C3%B4ne,+Rh%C3%B4ne-Alpes,+Frankrijk&ll=45.730844,4.887159&spn=0,359.997253&z=19&layer=c&cbll=45.730349,4.887796&panoid=18XTMoZRWgo7hU2KAFWmew&cbp=12,78.29,,0,12.14 Streetview]).
Tell them to drop you off at the gas station in St. Priest (Station service in french)and get a ride from there.
=== Northeast toward [[Bourg en Bresse]], [[Dijon]], [[Geneva]] {{European Route NumberE|611}} A42 ===
Bus 171 from "Hotel de ville" next to river in Lyon (dep at hours 03/33, weekend only 33), brings you close to a petrol-station on the motorway. It departs near the opera on Quai Jean moulin and takes about 45 mins (2 euros one way). It goes through some small French villages and along the way lots of big supermarkets in case you need food.
