To Montpellier and further you don't have to take the highway A7 and A54 (too much of a detour), the other road A55 and N568, passing by Martigues, Fos, through camargue and Arles is the one most people will take (to not pay the tolls) and is even shorter. Plus it is a nice place to see the Rhone's delta (Camargue) landscape.
January 2019: Not a lot of people were driving towards Fos at 11am-2pm. With not much traffic, traffic-light hitching from that spot was more difficult, as there were only a few cars at a time and they didn't stop long enough, and there was nowhere for them to pull over. Maybe going early would've worked better.
Also if you give up and get a train to Fos-sur-Mer it's not easy to get on the motorway again. (Ivy ended up sneaking through the big IMERYS factory, jumping a big fence, and walking a bit along the motorway to get to a small Total services. Do not recommend).
=== North or West by A7, towards A8, [[Aix-en-Provence]], [[Avignon]], [[Lyon]], or [[Nice]] ===
