Live Mode - Send Trip Itinerary Updates
To send a Trip Itinerary Update to the driver, click the New Trip button on the
toolbar and create a trip itinerary in the Trip Planner window just as you would
in Planning Mode (see p. 65).
Then click the Send button:
In the Send Trip Confirmation window you can specify whether you want the
new trip itinerary to replace the driver's existing trip, add as the next stop(s) in
the driver's current itinerary, or add as the last stop(s) in the driver's current
itinerary. Click OK to send the trip itinerary.
NOTE: CoPilot Live always uses the driver's current location as the start point
for giving route guidance.
