A system may include a processor configured to receive a first request from a first user; electronically assign a ridesharing vehicle to pick up the first user and determine a driving route for transporting the first user; determine a target arrival time at a first drop-off location; receive a second request from a second user; calculate an estimated delay that would be caused to the first user by picking up of the second user; determine whether the delay would cause the first user to arrive at a first drop-off location after a target arrival time; determine that picking up the second user will not cause the first user to arrive at the first drop-off location after the target arrival time and electronically assign the ridesharing vehicle to pick up the second user; and direct the ridesharing vehicle according to an updated driving route.
