5.1.7.4 Hints upon detour
If you leave the planned route by exiting a freeway, Alpine navigation tries to guess the reason for making
a detour. The Reason for detour window appears and shows available gas stations, restaurants or other
Places around the current position. Also, if there are avoidable parts of the original route ahead (like a
