Abstract
Embodiments include computer-implemented method, systems and computer program products for route planning utilizing a Global Positioning System (GPS) device to determine an accessible route of a person travelling in a vehicle. The computer-implemented method includes generating, by at least one processor of the GPS device utilizing a map database, a route and retrieving a vehicle profile identifying operable conditions of the vehicle. Information from a route condition database relating to conditions along the route is retrieved and it is determined based upon the conditions along the route and the operable conditions of the vehicle if the route is an authorized, passable route for the vehicle. In response to determining if the route is an authorized, passable route for the vehicle, the route is presented on a display screen.
