7.4.3 Vehicle
You can set the type of vehicle
you will use to navigate the
route. Based upon this setting,
some of the road types will be
excluded from the route (e.g.
motorways for pedestrians), or
some of the restrictions may
not be taken into account (e.g.
emergency vehicles have no
restrictions).
Furthermore, when Bus or
Truck is chosen, the program
assumes that high speeds
cannot be achieved, and this
information is taken into account
when calculating the route, the
estimated time enroute (ETE),
and the estimated time of arrival
(ETA).
Available values:
Car
Taxi
Bus
Truck
Emergency
Pedestrian
Bicycle
7.4.4 Road Types to
Include / Exclude
To let the route t your needs
you can also set which road
types are to be considered
or excluded from the route if
possible.
7.4.4.1 Unpaved Roads
Unpaved roads are excluded
by default, as they can be in a
bad condition and you usually
cannot reach the speed limit on
them.
7.4.4.2 Highways
When driving a slow car or
towing another vehicle, you may
prefer not to take highways.
7.4.4.3 Ferries
The accessibility of temporary
ferries is not necessarily
included in the map data.
Furthermore you may need to
pay fare, so you may consider
disabling them from the preset
enabled status.
NOTE :
Excluding a route is a preference.
It does not necessarily mean total
prohibition. If your destination
can only be accessed using
some of the excluded road types,
this Navigator will use them but
only as much as necessary. In
this case a warning icon will be
shown on the Route Information
screen (6.6), and the road not
matching your preference will be
displayed in an alternate color
on the map.
