How to avoid the selected road

Sorry, but it cannot be done on your nuvi. Only certain high-end models such as the 8x0, 8x5, 34xx & 35xx (I have not mentioned all units).

Custom avoidances are available on a small number of nuvi models but I expect that the 1350 is not among them. If seen, they'd be in the Avoidance menu.

Instead of custom avoidances, use waypoints to have a desired route, avoiding a particular road.

Personally never even tried it, but what happens when you select "Detour"?

Try using a via route around the road you don/t want to use. When I travel to florida my 1490lmt routes me through 1-10 to 301 to I75 but I pick a point on A1A as a via point and it will direct me to use A1A instead of I-10. A1A puts me on 301 then to I-75

... then go your own way. (The technique works real well with some disco or other preY2K music in your MP3 player).

While navigating on a state route in Wisconsin, the sign said, "Detour. Bridge Out." I hit detour button. Jill routed me 5 miles west, then 1 mile north, then back to my original route. I looked at my paper map and decided to take a nearby gravel road, saving me 8 miles. But Jill was right because I had gravel roads checked in avoidance.

Both my NUVI 3490 & 3590 have the "avoid road" feature and I love it.

Even my 855 has that feature and so does the 3790.
