Continuous ride updates conflict with field connectivity

The pilot requires continuous ride updates, while drivers report material coverage gaps and the current architecture has no durable offline queue or reconnect synchronization.

Implementation impact

Operational / business

Operations may lose visibility of active journeys, and riders may lose confidence when trip progress appears stale during the pilot.

Technical

Ride-state transitions can fail or disappear when connectivity drops, leaving server state incomplete or out of sequence.

Recommended action

Introduce a local event queue with idempotent replay, visible pending state, and reconnect synchronization before pilot expansion.

Acceptance criteria

  • A driver can complete all required ride-state transitions during a 15-minute simulated outage, and each transition synchronizes exactly once and in order after connectivity returns.
  • The driver interface clearly distinguishes pending, synchronized, and failed state changes.
