SP, selection probability, where the value for all rides (leftmost column) is the denominator.
1
App use was set probabilistically according to the participants’ reported app-use patterns and the ride’s reported purpose (Supplement 1, Table S2). Values represent the mean ± standard deviation of ten simulations.
2
Utilitarian rides that were commutes were considered to occur a maximum of once per day, so a daily commute of one out trip and one return was counted as one ride. Its distance was calculated including both the out and return trip.
