This spot is in between a bridge and a roundabout, there is space for cars to stop, but they tend to be too fast to stop. To go to Rennes, this might be a good spot, but I had a sign towards Paris, which is far away. I changed my spot and got lucky.

It is a great spot if you want to go towards the West (Avranches, Mt Saint Michel, Rennes...). There is a lot of space for cars to stop.
People may take you to Bretteville-sur-Odon where there is a big roundabout and the begining of the road towards Rennes, you can go but the spot is more difficult (not so much room to stop) !
(I am a women of 24 yo, hitchhiked there alone maybe ten times and never waited more than 10 minutes)

Spot parfait pour Angers !
Quasiment tout le monde y vas, les voitures ne vont pas trop vite car sortie de rond point et il y a de la place pour s'arrêter.
Il y a à peu près tout le temps des voitures car étant sur l'axe Rennes - Angers.

superbe aire d’autoroute pour aller direction rennes ! se mettre au croisement avant la sortie, les voitures roulent lentement c’est top

Tried to get a ride to Mont Saint-Michel as 2 guys, and after waiting 50 minutes, a French-Russian guy stopped and even though he lived somewhere between Rennes and Mont Saint-Michel, he took us directly to the gate at Mont Saint-Michel parking.

Objectif : Vannes - Paris. Sur mon panneau j’ai mis Rennes, vous avez aussi le choix de passer par Nantes. Ce spot est pratique car les voitures peuvent s’arrêter directement après et c’est une voie rapide juste après en direction de Nantes et de Rennes, donc cela augmente vos chances.

The spots from Rennes to Caen are not nice cause it goes directly from the ring to the highway
But it works, for me it is the best place, the last entry before it splits, and the highway is free

rating: 4/5

Best place of France to hitchhack. Always a lot of hitchackers but they disappear before you can say hello, so easy to go to rennes (a bit too much of cars at rush hours). If you want to go to Angers, Vannes or St Nazaire, this is not the right spot (i'm from Nantes)

We walked from Paimpont to Merlin Tomb. We had to take the bus back to Rennes and the place was too far, so we waited at this crossroad and a men picked us up. He was very kind and available.

Cars going to Caen, Rennes, Nantes but quite fast because either they come out from a short underpass or they speed out of a roundabout. There is some space for them to stop, but since the ones coming out of the underpass would have to cross the other cars I find it a bit risky for them. I got taken by a hitchhiker after 30 minutes wait and hilding a sign to Rennes, because he said it's an unconvenient spot and he was going to Nantes.

Not a great spot. I was left there by the first car who took me from Rennes. Difficult to stop for the car even though there was at least some cars passing by. 10:30 am in middle of August.
