    RouteTools software, created by Rand McNally, is designed to solve various routing problems. Its graphic interface allows drivers to:

    • Run routes quickly — use either Quickest Route or industry-standard Household Goods (HHG) algorithms.

    • Steer clear of accounting discrepancies — obtain mileage for billing purposes using Quickest Route or HHG Tariff Mileage Guide.

    • Ensure compliance on the road — RouteTools will detail out-of-compliance routing so that adjustments can be made.

    • Reach your destination on time — use RoadWork to identify delays or provide alternate routing.

    • Use only truck stops that meet user needs — create a fuel network by identifying amenities required at more than 6,000 truckstops nationwide.

    • Cross-reference a route — use the page and grid number reference to the Motor Carriers' Road Atlas 2001.

    • Get software help quickly — use the imbedded Quick Reference Guide.
