If you are only passing through Lyon, it is best to get a ride that will take you south of Lyon.If you have time, though, do consider stopping there for a bit - it's a beautiful city!

Petrol station BruyéresBruyères-Passy on the A6 North. This is a good option because it puts you already north and out of Lyon, at a petrol station right along the motorway. To get there take the metro to the stop ''Gare de Vaise''. From there catch the bus number 21 (Any bus with the number 21 will do, as this is the beginning of the route) and get off at the stop called ''Parc Sans Souci''. After you get off the bus continue walking in the direction the bus leaves (as if you were chasing it after you get off!) After about 50 meters you will hit a street called ''Rue Sans Souci'' and turn left. Continue walking following the road about 10 minutes, then turn right onto a road called ''Chemin de la Bruyere''. You should see the petrol station on the left after the Harley Davidson Warehouse/Store. There is a fence but it's usually open, otherwise jump it, it's small. The petrol station is next to Metro store

Total petrol station on A7, south of Lyon, on the level of a town called Vernaison, is a perfect place. To get there, you should take a train heading to Vernaison (€3.20,). At Vernaison you cross the river (there are two bridges and an island between) once on the other site of the river follow road left (north) walk until you reach the A7 highway and walk the down ramp next to the Energies Nouvelles sign. Welcome to "Chemistry Valley", one of the most polluted areas in France! You need to walk direction opposite to driving cars 1 km (don't try to use the way behind the propertys). The distance from Vernaison train station to the petrol station is around 3 km.
