this was probably my bad or unluck, but i've noticed that if you pick the last gas station on the way to the city, no one will actually go the city in question.
i had many offers to spain or further then montpellier, so in the end I accepted one and had to climb over the highway fence. wasn't hard or anything, but note that for Montpellier it can be problematic

galère pour aller dans le sud en étant deux gars on a pas mal attendu genre 2h au moins mais c’est finalement passé vers montpellier
beaucoup de place pour que les voitures s’arrêtent si ça a pas changé

It’s one of the best spots to leave Grenoble going if you want to go north or south west. Very good traffic to the point we had to decline rides because they were too short. We used a Montpellier sign we found there from previous hitchhikers, although we only were expecting to get to valance a married couple brought us to a small village behind Montpellier. Might be the goat spot

I tried to go to Bordeaux (by Lyon or Montpellier). Lot of cars. Not much area to stop. 2 exits are free before first motorway rest area to Lyon.
White male.

Best way to leave montpellier direction north / east. Take the train at Saint Roch direction Nimes, it's only 7 min and no control, end at "Baillargues" and then walk for 10min. You can easly have a lift, did it several times (takes between 15 and 45min) to the closest station ("ambrussum sud") just 15min away and then you're on the highway to paradise ;)

Most effective way to leave montpellier direction south, ask just to go to the station just 10min away where you can pick long distance pple

such a pretty rest area, almost didn't want to leave lol
i'd say ~50% go in the direction marseille, 40% in the direction nimes, montpellier and 10% some places inbetween the upcoming highway-split
found a ride in the morning to montpellier quite quickly
also true: great spots to camp and spend the night
not true anymore: dumpster accessability

There was not that much traffic and even if someone was actually going they were usually picking the directions of Montpellier and we were going to Italy's border. Also people seemed to not even look in our direction. But after some time a lovely lady with her elderly mom stopped and they took us to the next gas station on the highway.
Also the guard told us to leave while we were staying right after toll station which was unfortunate as there was a lot of space to park
