Not if the route is well designed. One of my colleagues at Stanford developed an algorithm which can `rebalance' without increasing congestion: https://asl.stanford.edu/wp-content/papercite-data/pdf/Rossi...

That might work in theory but I doubt it'd work in practice. You already now get Google Maps congestion of small roads that happen to be the fastest according to Google maps. I don't think vendors will be able to develop a fleet that intelligently coordinates routes. Especially because that'd make routes of some cars slower, not something people would accept.
