Routing Preferences
to drive your RV or other large vehicle. In the United States only, RV routing completely
avoids highways that have bridge heights under 12'6" or 13' (whichever you select). It DOES
NOT factor bridge heights into consideration on smaller, local roads. For your safety, always
take note of bridge heights when driving large RV's.
Routing Type
CoPilot's Quickest routing type is based on the most efficient route in terms of road quality,
terrain, and urban/rural road classifications. CoPilot's Shortest routing type calculates the
shortest route while maintaining reasonable standards of practicality. A Scenic route will take
more rural and scenic roads wherever possible and practical.
Routing Options
When Avoid Tolls is checked, CoPilot's route calculations will avoid toll roads where it is
possible to do so while maintaining a reasonably practical and efficient route.
When International Borders Open is checked, routes may cross international borders to
provide better routing. If this option is not checked, no borders will be crossed. Check Break
Every to include a break time that shows up in your on-screen itinerary and is added to the
estimated time of arrival (ETA) calculations.
Check Avoid Propane-Restricted Tunnels if your vehicle is carrying propane and you want
CoPilot to route around restricted tunnels.
To set routing preferences in Guidance Mode, click
Options, then click Routing in the Options menu.
Note that the changes you make here in the Routing
Preferences window will carry over to Planning
Mode, and vice versa.
Basic Options:
Vehicle Type
CoPilot comes with pre-defined routing options that
provide RV-friendly routing (choose RV) or routing
that is calculated specifically for most light vehicles
such as cars, SUVs, and small trucks (choose
Automobile). If you choose RV routing, narrow
roads, tight turns, and U-turns will all be minimized
to provide you with the safest and easiest way
