1. A method for specifying locations of targets for a transit service, the method being implemented by one or more processors and comprising:
- receiving a service request for the transit service from a user;
determining a target location for the service request;
based on the target location, determining, from a virtual stopping space database, a vehicle stopping location that is different than the target location; and
transmitting an instruction set to a vehicle, the instruction set comprising a first instruction identifying the vehicle stopping location for a vehicular portion of the transit service, and a second instruction that specifies a path for a driver of the vehicle from the vehicle stopping location to the target location, the path to be followed by the driver upon parking the vehicle at the vehicle stopping location.
