    Highway routing

    For delivery planning, a one-way drive of 4h keeps same-day delivery comfortable — a single driver can often complete the round trip within one shift. These are estimates — real ETAs shift with traffic, checkpoints, and multi-stop detours. Live GPS tracking & route monitoring shows actual vehicle progress and customer-facing ETAs instead of a fixed guess.
