Ride-hailing services, which are offered by companies such as Uber and Lyft, have the potential to produce both benefits and negative externalities. In particular, ride-hailing can help improve mobility and accessibility, but can also contribute to increases in vehicle-miles traveled, congestion, and emissions. Induced ride-hailing trips (i.e., trips that would not have been made if ride-hailing was not available) represent somewhat of a middle ground between benefits and negative externalities. Studies on ride-hailing use have consistently found evidence of induced trips; however, relatively little is known about induced ride-hailing trips. This study uses data from a weeklong smartphone-based travel survey conducted in three metropolitan regions in California to examine the attributes of induced ride-hailing trips and the people who made said trips during the survey period. Descriptive analysis, hypothesis testing, and binary logistic regression are applied to gain insights into the attributes of induced ride-hailing trips and the factors influencing whether a person recorded an induced trip during the survey period. The results suggest that induced trips are more likely to correspond to discretionary and maintenance activities and more likely to be made using pooled ride-hailing services. Additionally, the members of groups that have traditionally experienced transportation disadvantage (including people with disabilities, people from lower-income households, and people from zero-vehicle households) were more likely to record an induced trip. This information can help inform efforts to improve the mobility and accessibility of disadvantaged groups and contribute to improvements in transit and paratransit services.

并非所有的叫车行程都是一样的:对网约车支持的额外行程以及进行这些行程的用户的检查
由 Uber 和 Lyft 等公司提供的叫车服务有可能同时产生好处和负外部性。特别是,网约车有助于提高流动性和可达性,但也可能导致车辆行驶里程、拥堵和排放的增加。诱导的网约车出行(即,如果没有网约车服务,就不会进行的出行)在某种程度上代表了利益和负面外部性之间的中间地带。关于网约车使用的研究一直发现诱发行程的证据;然而,人们对诱导叫车行程知之甚少。这项研究使用在加利福尼亚州三个大都市地区进行的为期一周的基于智能手机的旅行调查的数据,以检查诱导叫车行程的属性以及在调查期间进行上述行程的人。应用描述性分析、假设检验和二元 logistic 回归来深入了解诱导叫车出行的属性以及影响一个人在调查期间是否记录诱导出行的因素。结果表明,诱导出行更有可能对应于自由支配和维护活动,并且更有可能使用拼车叫车服务进行。此外,传统上交通处于劣势的群体成员(包括残疾人、低收入家庭的人和零车辆家庭的人)更有可能记录诱导出行。这些信息有助于为改善弱势群体的流动性和可达性的工作提供信息,并有助于改善公交和辅助客运服务。
