ALK Technologies has introduced an in-cab navigation system designed specifically for truck drivers and owner-operators.

ALK's new CoPilot Truck combines the truck routing, mileage and mapping capabilities of its PC*Miler program and the in-vehicle GPS navigation and route guidance technology of its CoPilot product line to offer truckers dock-to-dock driving directions from a laptop in the cab.
Spoken instructions and a Driver Safety screen help to minimize distractions so drivers will be alert at all times. The pre-trip planning feature allows drivers to preview routes before getting on the road, and multiple-stop route optimization generates the most efficient route for up to 50 addresses.
CoPilot Truck provides instant and automatic route recalculation within seconds of missing a turn or going out-of-route for any reason, and the one-click Detour feature routes around traffic or construction immediately. In addition, Toll Discouraged routing helps save on tolls. Drivers are guaranteed to make more money by reducing out-of-route and empty mileage, and hauling more loads in less time.
With real-time directions, two-way voice technology and advanced business features, CoPilot Truck finds the most efficient, truck-usable routes to millions of addresses, guiding drivers turn-by-turn and even naming streets along the way.
