Got a direct ride to Poitiers in 5-10 minutes! Little traffic at that time (1 pm).

rating: 5/5, wait: 5 min, ride: 122 km ↑

Huge traffic, visibility and place to stop but only one car stopped after more than one hour and took me 5 kms further (I had a sign for Poitiers).

rating: 2/5, wait: 65 min, ride: 3 km ↑

With a sign Bordeaux/Poitiers, we (couple) waited 30min and found a car to Niort. The spot is quite good but not the best for the cars to stop over there (there is a little step between the road and the cyclable road where the car can stop)

rating: 4/5, wait: 30 min, ride: 189 km ↙

A reasonable spot to get you out to the sortie #6 of autoroute A83 which goes south towards Niort and onto the E5 towards Bordeaux or Poitiers.

Not a good place for going south, a lot of people are just going to Poitiers. A lot of trucks however.

It was my first experience in a gas station. I asked 10 persons and the last couple was the right one. They drive me up to Poitiers !

Perfect place to go to Poitiers. There is a "Covoiturage" parking place for the car. Scurity

Les voitures peuvent s'arrêter facilement sur le bas côté. Avec un panneau Poitiers, j'ai été prise en 5 minutes.

arriving from nantes, we get off here from a car going to orléans because our aim was lyon and chambéry. it was lunch time and there were quite many people going in all possible directions (nantes, orléans, poitiers, bourges). we got a ride direct to chambéry (wouhou) after about 1h, but other people had offered us a ride in other directions before.

Go to Poitiers. Not
authorized in France on this kind of road. But no police to tell something if you stay calm. Pretty good place, secure, people go to Orlans, Poitiers or Tours. Shop, coffee, WC and shower (2) ... I waited less then 15min with my pannel, I was well dress.

Pour prendre l'A20 en direction de Limoges ou Paris. Un panneau est prfrable. Il est galement possible d'aller vers LeBlanc/poitiers. Pas une super place.

Spanish truck driver which we came from Bordeaux left us here at mid-night and he said tomorrow sunday he went to sleeping and we hitchhike a guy to the highway enterance in Poitiers (weird guy he looking us like crayz and explaining he doesn't trust people at night and stairing at them). he drop us at the enterance of the highway but for 45 mins low traffic and no body stpped, so we went inside highway to service area nearby ~4 km.
