Start with the truck profile
A new CDL driver should not have to learn commercial routing by treating a passenger-car GPS as a truck GPS. Highway Miles starts with the actual truck profile and keeps route planning, low-clearance information, weather, traffic, truck stops, parking, and navigation in one workflow.
The app can reduce tool switching, but it does not remove the driver’s responsibility to review the route, read signs, follow permits and carrier instructions, and question any route that does not make sense for the truck.

How to use it
What drivers need to know
The route can only be planned around the information the app has. Enter the actual height, weight, length, axle count, trailer configuration, cargo, and supported hazmat settings for the vehicle and load being driven.
If the truck, trailer, or load changes, update the profile before building the next trip.
Look at the full trip before departure. Pay attention to commercial restrictions, clearance concerns, customer access, construction, road closures, and whether the route makes sense for the equipment.
If navigation conflicts with a posted sign or legal restriction, the sign and restriction win.
New drivers often end up switching among separate apps for navigation, weather, parking, truck stops, and route research. Highway Miles is designed to keep those truck-focused functions in one navigation workflow while the driver builds experience.
Questions drivers ask
Highway Miles is designed for commercial drivers and can help a new CDL driver plan around a truck profile, review low-clearance information, build multi-stop routes, and keep weather, traffic, and truck-focused locations together. It does not replace training or driver judgment.
