> In typical transport management practice, the freight forwarder or logistics provider must authorize a planned route before departure.

In typical transport management practice, the freight forwarder or logistics provider must authorize a planned route before departure. This involves verifying the route's availability, current traffic conditions, regulatory restrictions (e.g. driving bans, tolls, weight limits), and safety considerations. Government authorities or automated route-management systems validate whether the route is passable and compliant. Only after this authorization can the vehicle proceed.
