Before a predetermined vehicle re-allocation grace time passes after receiving the ride information indicating that the prospective passenger has not ridden in the assigned self-driving vehicle, the vehicle assignment unit assigns a self-driving vehicle other than the assigned self-driving vehicle to a vehicle dispatch request from other than the prospective passenger.",
