How about this idea for a firmware upgrade: under "avoidances", include a sub-heading of "custom POI's". Then one could choose to use routing that would avoid a set of POI's (like Dunkin' Donuts).
Or more seriously, choosing a route that would bypass any intersections with red light cameras.

I like that idea. You could
I like that idea. You could avoid police stations, school zones, even your in-law's house..
I doubt it'll ever happen though. Oh well..
Cool idea....
I kinda like the thought of that. I've wanted Garmin to update the "avoidances" items on the 550 to include interstates. I would love to specifically avoid just them, but can't.
Hmmm... however, if I could "avoid" Mickey Ds... I might have a shot at loosing some weight! -grin-

I do know that you can add areas in MapSource to avoid. This then gets uploaded into my StreetPilot. This is under Preferences -> Routing -> Advance
