The age of the Sat Nav or GPS tool has been great in assisting drivers to reach their destination. ProNav differs from the usual routing specifics as it provides crucial information that the HGV or van driver needs. The main features of the unit are: Enhanced features Dynamic routing and optimisation - the unit has the ability to input the data of the vehicle such as width, height, length and weight. It then calculates the best route taking in to consideration narrow lanes, low bridges etc. ProNav is capable of calculating routes based upon the type of vehicle and its load, to help the driver avoid areas with restrictions. For instance some roads are not suitable for HGVs and hazardous loads may only travel through certain environments. Beat the elements.... Other factors to consider are whether steep hills or cross winds etc. could be a potential problem for the driver''s safety when navigating on these routes. ProNav recognises the area and warns of these hazards. Avoid penalties and fines.... The city of London poses its own set of problems especially when or where the driver can park, load or unload. Routes (red) and standard loading data are contained within the ProNav and advises of times of loading/unloading within London. Potential parking and penalty charges are also a feature to ensure the driver avoids these areas. You can even find a caf that serves breakfast for under 5.00, petrol stations, cash machines plus comprehensive truckstop database with day/night parking tariffs and the availability of facilities such as showers. Be safe.... Safety cameras are placed in potential black-spot regions to warn drivers as they approach the area. All major safety camera types are contained within the unit such as Gatso, Truvelo, Specs and Mobile and the driver receives alerts warning of speed limitations during travel. Replaces your existing Sat Nav.... Not only does ProNav have the enhanced features the HGV or commercial driver demands, it also has the standard basic features that at the switch of a button turn the unit into the sat nav we are more used to. These features are 4.3-inch colour TFT touchscreen, built-in Bluetooth® for hands-free calling, UK post code search, including mapping of Ireland, safety camera and POI alerts and the renowned Navteq mapping data. So if you''re a HGV driver or have a lorry, van, coach or bus and are looking to ease the pain of city centre navigation or the frustration of the more rural areas, then the ProNav GPS unit is the perfect solution to today''s driving headache...
