as useful in very dense areas, and
may clutter the map if other POIs are also set for display on the map.

select to avoid freeways, toll roads,
ferries, car trains and tunnels when
planning your route. You can also
select to use HOV lanes (if
available), and have the system
always select the shortest distance,
fastest time or most ecological route
when calculating a route for you.
Navigation Preferences:Allows
you to choose your navigation
prompts to be either voice or tone
only. You can also choose to have
the system automatically fill the
state and province based on the

set how you would like the system to handle traffic problems along your
