ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for generating a route from a source location to a destination in a vehicle navigation system. Initially, the system generates a first partial route from the source location to the end of the first partial route. The system then determines whether a second maneuver is within a first distance from a first maneuver at the end of the first partial route. Where the second maneuver is within the first distance, the system increases the cost associated with the second maneuver. The system then generates a second partial route from the end of the first partial route to the destination, generation of the second partial route being based at least in part on the cost associated with the second maneuver.
