Shorter Distance — Choose this option if you want your StreetPilot to use distance as the criteria for
calculating your route. This means that the distance might be shorter but you may have to drive longer.
Off Road — Choose this option to view a direct-line route to your destination. This option does not

where obscure roads (or no roads) might be.

route, select Resume Route.
