How quickly does Uber rating update?

Uber expects high approval ratings for its drivers. Because your rating is calculated based on the average ratings of your last 500 rides (or your total rides if you're at less than 500), a consistently low rating will set off red flags at Uber HQ. You will risk deactivation if your rating goes below 4.6.
