will not avoid cross-traffic turns at major intersections where you will
likely have a protected turn at a traffic light.
Sometimes you would have to drive miles out of your way to avoid tak-
ing a cross-traffic turn somewhere in your route. Then again, some-
times it's worth it. Practice with this setting to find the value that's
right for your driving experience.
Prefer/Avoid Toll Roads
By default, toll roads have a fairly high value in iWAY's route genera-
tion because they are generally high quality roads with high speed lim-
its allowing you to get where you are going faster.
If you would like to save on the cost of traveling toll roads consider set-
ting the iWAY to generally Avoid toll roads by pressing and dragging
the
TOLL ROADS slider to the right.
If you want to drive free drag the slider all the way to the right and the
iWAY will not use toll roads at all. If you prefer the convenience of toll
roads and don't mind the cost you can give them an even greater value
by pressing and dragging the slider to the left.
Prefer/Avoid Interstates
Interstate Highways aren't as expensive to travel as toll roads but
sometimes the stress of merging and exiting combined with the high
speed make interstates less attractive – especially for short trips across
town.
The default setting is designed to avoid Interstates for very short trips
but if you feel like it's sending you to the highway too often try setting
the iWAY to Avoid Interstates.
Press and drag the
INTERSTATES slider to the right. Like toll roads, you
might prefer the speed of Interstate travel. You can set the iWAY to prefer
Interstates by pressing and dragging the slider to the left.
Turn Preview
The Turn Preview checkbox allows you to toggle whether or not the
iWAY displays a Turn Preview screen whenever you approach a turn in
your route.
A Turn Preview is a special screen designed to prepare you for upcom-
ing turns. You can access the Turn Preview for any turn in your route
by going to the Directions List.
