Abstract
A system can receive a request for transport from a computing device of a user and select a service provider to provide transport for the user to a destination location. The system can receive location data from the computing device of the service provider. After the service provider picks up the user, the system can determine whether the service provider progresses toward the destination location in accordance with a set of progress conditions. Based at least in part on determining that the service provider has not progressed toward the destination location in accordance with the set of progress conditions, the system can adjust a fare for providing transport for the user to the destination location.
