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.
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 in your driving directions and ETA calculations.
Advanced Options
Click the Advanced button in the Trip Options
window to adjust road speeds and preferences. Use
the sliding bars to favor or avoid each CoPilot road
type. Average road speeds can be typed in for each
road type or selected from the pick lists. Road
speeds significantly affect how CoPilot calculates
routes, so it is advisable to adjust these and run
routes in an area you know well to see how the
routing changes.
