into account the traffic conditions.

fastest route.

Route features
You can choose to avoid some features that are on your currently planned route. You can avoid the
following route features:
Toll Roads
Ferries and car shuttle trains
Carpool Lanes
Unpaved Roads
Note: Carpool lanes are sometimes known as High Occupancy Vehicle Lanes (HOV lanes) and are
not present in every country. To travel on these lanes, you may need to have more than one
person in the car, for example, or the car may need to use environmentally-friendly fuel.
If you choose to avoid a route feature, a new route is planned.

route is planned.
