Abstract

Systems and methods for reconciling a conflict between a rider-selected route and driving preferences of a driver are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system accesses driving preferences of the driver, wherein the driving preferences include preferences derived from past selection of routes by the driver. The networked system detects the conflict between characteristics of the rider-selected route and the driving preferences and determines one or more routes from a location of a vehicle of the driver to a destination based on the driving preferences. The network system reconciles the rider-selected route with the driving preferences by replacing at least one segment of the rider-selected route with at least one segment from the one or more routes to generate a reconciled route. The reconciled route is then displayed on a user interface of a device of the driver.
