Abstract
A remote driving taxi system provides a mobility service using remote driving taxis that are driven by remote drivers. Management information indicates assignment states between the remote driving taxis and the remote drivers. The remote driving taxi system executes an assignment process based on the management information, in response to a request from a user. Specifically, the remote driving taxi system selects one of unassigned taxis to each of which the remote driver has not been assigned, as a first remote driving taxi that provides the service to the user. Further, the remote driving taxi system selects one of remote drivers each of which has not been assigned to the remote driving taxi, as a first remote driver that provides the service to the user. Then, the remote driving taxi system assigns the first remote driver to the first remote driving taxi.
