Driving
Driving & Traffic Options
Driving options control how a driving route is calculated; they do not affect walking directions.
  • Choose from fastest route, shortest route, avoid freeways, or avoid toll roads.
  • Select either Drive or Walk (pedestrian routing) mode.
  • Optionally use traffic data to calculate a better route.
  • Choose whether to send traffic probe data to help improve the accuracy of traffic information.
  • Optionally show traffic incidents (construction, accidents, events, etc.) overlaid on the map.
  • Choose whether to optimize the order of stops in a multi-stop trip (for use during Voice Guidance only). With this option turned off, or while using Silent Guidance, routing will proceed in the order stops are added.

  • Set the voice guidance to a desirable level (relative to your music) using the volume slider labeled Voice Guidance Volume. This will not affect the volume of your music or application sound effects.
