This document describes methods by which a system determines a pickup/drop-off zone (PDZ) to which a vehicle will navigate to perform a ride service request. The system will access map data that includes the destination interval and define a geometric interval at the requested destination of the ride service request by: (i) using the vehicle's length and the road's speed limit at the destination to calculate a minimum allowable length for the interval; and (ii) setting start point and end point boundaries for the interval having an intervening distance that is equal to or greater than the minimum allowable length. The system will then generate a path to guide the vehicle to the interval.
