  • {{additional constraints}} — e.g., time sensitivity, vehicle type, load size (optional)

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing information (type of goods and location) before proceeding.
  2. Research and summarize the relevant local regulations for transporting the specified goods in the given location.
  3. Suggest 2–3 compliant routes that minimize delays or risks, explaining why each route is suitable.
