1. A risk regression system for an on-demand transportation service, comprising:

  • one or more processors; and

    one or more memory resources storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the risk regression system to;

    receive, over one or more networks, transport requests from requesting users within a given region, each of the transport requests indicating a pick-up location and a destination;

    for each transport request, obtain a set of possible routes between the pick-up location and the destination;

    for each transport request, based on the set of possible routes between the pick-up location and the destination, compute an aggregate risk quantity for each possible route in the set, each aggregate risk quantity comprising a set of fractional risk quantities of respective path segments of a route; and

    determine whether to enable autonomous vehicles (AVs) to service the transport request based on the aggregate risk quantities.
