Do Uber drivers care about your rating?

That also means if you have a low rating, it may be difficult for you to have a driver accept your request. So, what's a good rating? Generally, anything below a 4.5 is considered bad. That 4.5 may seem high considering Uber uses a five-star system, but most drivers will give you five stars.

Uber driver ratings are one of the most crucial parts of being an Uber driver. High ratings mean more fares, higher tips, and the possibility of getting onto new tiers of Uber. Conversely, low ratings mean you're costing yourself opportunities or, worse, getting your Uber driver account suspended.

Don't worry. One low rating won't have a significant impact on your overall average. If you're consistently rated poorly, check out Uber resources, including tips from other delivery people. If your rating doesn't improve, you may lose access to the app (see Uber's Community Guidelines for more information).

I have a 4.85 Uber passenger rating, is that good, bad, or average? It's pretty average… most riders will have a 4.8 or higher. Anything less than 4.7 and you will start seeing it take longer to get a ride, because drivers will begin declining to take a ride from someone with a rating so low.

While the readers concerned about 4.5 to 4.8 ratings have nothing to worry about, riders with much lower ratings are at risk of having drivers decline their ride request. This can leave you with longer wait times, and — if your rating drops too low — there's the risk of being booted from Uber completely.

I'm not being oblivious or anything but I am pretty sure I haven't done anything that warranted a 1-star rating, always being clean and on-time etc...
