Hi. I’m going through your tutorials in order (and I’m learning so much! Thank you!), so my question may be answered later, but here’s my question on avoidance areas: Is there a way to avoid certain roads by name and/or section, such as “avoid CA Hwy 4 between Arnold and Markleeville” (aka Ebbetts Pass), or maybe avoid a certain area with a bad reputation within, say, a large city (I’d give an example, but I’d get in trouble)? Or do I have to go to the map and draw a box around the area?
There is no way to avoid roads by name or number, just as there is no way to follow a road by name or number.
