Systems and methods for increasing the efficiency of vehicle platooning systems are described. In one aspect, data associated with roads is received by a system. The data received by a system may include information regarding a number of vehicles capable of platooning on a road. This data may be historical data or real-time data. Based on the received data that indicates how many vehicles capable of platooning may be on a road at a given time a system may direct other platoonable vehicles to travel on the same road at the given time to improve their chances of being able to platoon with other vehicles.
