Avoid Cross-Traffic Turns
Use this option to avoid turns across busy lanes of traffic. The iWAY
will not avoid cross-traffic turns at major intersections, where you will
likely have a protected turn at a traffic light. As with all of these set-
tings, try changing it a little at a time. Sometimes you'd have to drive
miles out of your way to avoid taking a cross-traffic turn somewhere in
your route. Then again, sometimes it's worth it. Practice with this set-
ting 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
limits, allowing you to get where you're going faster.
Of course, the convenience of toll roads comes at a price. If you'd rather
save some of the cost of traveling toll roads, consider setting the iWAY
to generally Avoid toll roads (press and drag the
T
OLL
R
OADS
slider to the
right). If you want to drive free, drag the slider all the way to the right,
and the iWAY won't use toll roads at all.
Of course, 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
Of course, 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 is already designed to avoid Interstates for very short trips, but
if you feel like it's sending you to the highway too often, try telling the iWAY
to Avoid Interstates (press and drag the
I
NTERSTATES
slider to the right).
Like toll roads, you might prefer the speed of Interstate travel. You can
tell iWAY to prefer Interstates by pressing and dragging the slider to the
left.
Turn Preview
The Turn Preview checkbox on this screen allows you to toggle whether
or not the iWAY displays a Turn Preview screen whenever you ap-
proach a turn in your route, as described earlier.
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
