New GPS system created specifically for truckers

Truckers know that GPS technology is often one of the most useful tools in their cabin. Those who have recently completed their CDL training and want to know about some of the new developments in the industry can check out Magellan's GPS system exclusively made for commercial drivers.

The RoadMate 5190T is an external device that can fit onto a dashboard or attach to any part of the front of the truck that is visible to the driver. Like other GPS systems, the five-inch screen offers a clear picture of the road ahead and can visually or verbally announce when a turn or direction change is needed. This specific RoadMate also alerts drivers of sudden speed limit changes and can store mileage and driving hours information for truckers and fleet owners.

New commercial drivers who are investing in their own trucking equipment, or even those in charge of fleet management, can consider investing in this type of technology. Knowing the roadways ahead can ensure proper trucking safety precautions while navigating the nation's highways.
