What is the best rating for Uber driver?

Riders can rate drivers on a scale of one to five stars, with five being the best. If a rider rates a driver with anything lower than five stars, Uber will ask for an explanation. This doesn't mean you'll be penalized immediately. In fact, Uber doesn't require drivers to have a 5-star rating.

Is 4.75 good Uber? 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.

The basic consensus is this: Anything above a 4.9 is excellent, possibly even worth bragging about on Tinder; the 4.8 range is good; the 4.7 range is merely fine; the 4.6 range is nearing the borderline. Once your rating dips below 4.6, drivers start thinking you might be a little sketchy.

If your question was does an Uber driver know who the tippers are before they pick someone up the answer is no. But if a passenger tips, the driver will know and will know the amount after the ride is concluded. Do Uber drivers get mad when you don't tip them?
