Find Out What Your Uber Driver Thinks of You

Just when you thought only passengers had the power to rate driver behavior, Uber makes it possible for you to know what the latter thinks of you and your possibly unruly directions. 

Here’s how you get your rating:

1.     In the Uber app, click on the menu on the top left.
2.     Select Help, then Account.
3.     Click “I’d like to know my rating,” then submit.
4.     Check your email for the report.

Yup, no direct emails or complaints involved here.

The rating system is the same for both passenger and driver: a scale of one to five stars, with five being the highest. This helps drivers determine which riders to pick up. It’s also a helpful measure against rude and inconvenient app users.
 
According to Uber, “The rating system works to make sure that the most respectful riders and drivers are using Uber. Ratings are always reported as averages, and neither riders nor drivers will see the individual rating left for a particular trip.”
 
While some may find this fair, others who bark at the picky tendencies of drivers here may think it’s unjust. After all, despite the use of private vehicles, Uber is just a modern, safer form of public commute.
 
Then again, we have to remember that robots aren’t running these cars—drivers go on irregular shifts to get to you and bring you home safely. They are humans with feelings, and are trained to offer you Mentos candies during an awkwardly long trip.

These ratings will make you think how the eff you got an imperfect score for that incredibly short ride. (Pro tip: a good rider is someone who’s ready for pickup, put the right information, polite, and gives tips.)
