In densely populated-cities, the use of private cars for personaltransportation is unsustainable, due to high parking and road capacityrequirements. The mobility-on-demand systems have been proposed as analternative to a private car. Such systems consist of a fleet of vehicles thatthe user of the system can hail for one-way point-to-point trips. These systemsemploy large-scale vehicle sharing, i.e., one vehicle can be used by severalpeople during one day and consequently the fleet size and the parking spacerequirements can be reduced, but, at the cost of a non-negligible increase invehicles miles driven in the system. The miles driven in the system can bereduced by ridesharing, where several people traveling in a similar directionare matched and travel in one vehicle. We quantify the potential of ridesharingin a hypothetical mobility-on-demand system designed to serve all trips thatare currently realized by private car in the city of Prague. Our results showthat by employing a ridesharing strategy that guarantees travel timeprolongation of no more than 10 minutes, the average occupancy of a vehiclewill increase to 2.7 passengers. Consequently, the number of vehicle milestraveled will decrease to 35% of the amount in the MoD system withoutridesharing and to 60% of the amount in the present state.
