Riders who eat, attempt to vape, don't speak, act entitled and slam my door.

[@l.w.3303]

I give 1 star to people who ask me tons of questions like I'm their personal tour guide. I live in a tourist area so people think I'm an information booth. Also instant one star when they ask how much I make or if I drive full time. Lol

[@davidperry4013]

Slamming the door on purpose, arguing with me, vomiting inside the car and not apologizing, distracting me until I have unable to drive the vehicle safely. Smoking tobacco or marijuana, causing a near miss, hitting me, or being super rude and disrespectful is automatic kick out. Something like not saying thank you as the only thing they have done wrong would be a 4 star review because that’s only just a little bit disrespectful. If they vomit inside my car and sincerely apologize they can still get a 5 star rating but they’ll be charged for the cleaning because accidents happen. For making me wait, I dock a star for making me wait over 90 seconds with an additional star docked every 60 seconds and cancel ride after 5 minutes. Going off GPS is a Star docked every turn. Vaping without rolling down the window is 2 stars docked for low powered vapes and 3 stars docked for high powered vapes. If they are already at 1, and they pushed me again they are getting kicked out.

[@MychaelZ]

While I agree that these things can be disrespectful, I feel like some of them are pretty petty reasons to 1* a passenger. Maybe it's because Green Bay isn't the busiest market, or maybe I'm just averse to receiving retaliatory 1* ratings myself, but it takes A LOT for me to 1* a passenger. Basically, it boils down to "Were they bad enough that I am unwilling to give them a ride again?" If the answer is "yes," then it's 1*. Otherwise, I give everyone the benefit of the doubt.

I'm a passenger, not a driver, and I try to do all of these things. However, sometimes the pickup areas at airports are large and occasionally I find myself in the wrong place. Usually we text or call each other and resolve this, but it does take some time. Please forgive me for this, especially when I'm unfamiliar with the territory. I appreciate all you and your compatriots so. Thank you. 🙂

[@jacb630]

You’re very welcome. Sometimes getting through the airports can be really challenging-especially the huge airports like O’Hara, LAX, etc. I’ve been driving for about 6 years now and 99% of my rides go smoothly. I understand there are concerns on both the rider & driver sides. However, I personally think this guy is being a little TOO critical of his passengers. Just because someone doesn’t say thank you when they leave doesn’t mean they deserve a 1 star! Sometimes people just don’t want to talk. As long as they are courteous and quiet I’m ok with that. Let’s not come down on people so hard. Geez.

[@mkz4123]

I’m a driver and I can tell by your comment that you are sincere and we as drivers do understand that in airport and events etc… it’s confusing even for us drivers so we descent drivers do not mind the wait on those trips especially when the passenger communicates. We only don’t like to wait at residentials or restaurants. Residential cause there’s no excuse to be late. Restaurants are usually in hot areas and it’s hard to wait and block traffic especially in downtown

[@jonnybingo4062]

You should find out where the pickup area is before you request a ride. If you request a ride and then wander around the airport looking for the pick up area while you’re driver is sitting there waiting you are an idiot.

[@saucecastillo460]

Thank you. Calling/texting your driver is the right thing to do. I understand a rider might not be familiar with the airport, but I see it everyday, so calling or picking up when I call wouldn't affect your rating with me

You sound like a good passenger..you are not a bad passenger

​@@MyXyle666adding a stop without asking, will cancel a fare you've accepted, once you've started the current fare. Which costs us money. And it's not our job to take riders wherever they want to go. If I accept a fare, our agreement is I'll take you to the location(s) initially agreed upon. And if something happens along the way, I can absolutely cancel the fare, even if the rider did nothing wrong (not something you'd want to make a habit of, but that's your right to do so). For example, a rider wants to change & go to an area I'm not comfortable with, or they want to go an hour away from the original destination. We're not obligated to accept those changes

I'm pretty generous with my five-star ratings, but there's a few things that are an instant one-star for me. My biggest pet peeve is when passengers slam my door. It's totally unnecessary and just pisses me off. Number two is smoking a cigarette (or something else) before getting into my car.

Sadly I give almost all of my passengers 5 stars. Not anymore, I am going to start rating them as petty as they rate me. Apparently there are alot of scumbags who just give low ratings to a driver for the fun of it. I wait for at least half of my passengers. I frequently send a message to them saying I have arrived. I occasionally blow the horn. I get alot of passengers who scream into their phone and think nothing of it. I have always given 5 stars to almost all of my passengers, but like I said, I have gotten less then a 5 star rating for reasons unkown to me, except 1 said I was speeding, which I always do 5 mph over the speed limit, and 1 gave ma a 1 star rating for telling me my next stop, but it wasnt in the trip request and since they got rude about it, I simply drove them to the destination in the trip request. I am tired of giving passengers the benefit of the doubt only to have them screw me over by leaving less then 5 star rating for me. I was once told if a driver or a passenger leaves less then 3 star rating, that they will not be paired again in the uber app. Does anyone know if this is true or not ? There are some passengers I would rather not pick up a 2nd or 3rd, etc time.

She did not eat my car however she was so drunk, that I offered if she was feeling sick that I would pull over for her.

I'm totally new to Uber (as a rider) and recently had to take it several times to drop off and pick up my car from a nearby car repair shop. However, I know a lady who does not drive and would like to use Uber to do her shopping. So I have some questions. Would it be possible for her to deal with just ONE uber driver during the whole trip? He'd have to pick her up from home, take her to the store, wait for her for about 30 minutes while she's shopping, then help her load her car and drive her home? Or she should get a ride to the grocery store, do her shopping and then get another Uber ride? I remember that some taxi drivers were quite happy to wait for their fares as they were shopping or having dinner--after all, they WERE paid for the wait time. What about Uber? Are they paid for such a wait time? Is it possible to somehow communicate the situation with the driver before the ride? I'd appreciate your comments.

[@DigiDawg2]

Recently got fired from Uber cuz some woman gave me a one star rating and said I made comments that made her uncomfortable when we were talking about pets and cat food...woke up the next morning mad and 😢 cuz they didn't even try to investigate my side of the story and when I gave them the story and asked for what was the disparaging comment I was rewarded with crickets.

[@jestinnawelch35]

Hey folks! 👋 UberX/EATS driver here. I have to say this guy's 1 ⭐ rules are, Imo, pretty damn bougie. Personally, I have only given like 3 passengers a 1 ⭐ rating out of over 500 lifetime trips. First, with the headphones rule, dude, not everyone has headphones with them at the time they order a ride. There are so many reasons why (I.E. lost, dead, or recently broken, and just haven't had a chance to replace yet) So, this just seems really judgmental, and an unreasonable expectation. Also, sometimes people need their volume loud because they may have hearing trouble (not just old people have this problem) If they want to have a conversation on speaker phone, or play videos on their phones, to distract them for the ride it's their prerogative to do so! It's pretty messed up to 1 ⭐ someone for that. About eating food and feeling like you're basically entitled to a "thank you" by every passenger. I mean, yeah they are in YOUR car, with a service YOU provided, but they paid for those services with THEIR money. It's not their obligation to speak to you. They may not feel well, or are pondering some life events they are dealing with and just not thinking about it. Dude, nobody is perfect people make mistakes. My job is to provide a service. Get people from A to B. If they are snacking and forgot something in the car (left a mess) It's MY obligation to keep my car looking presentable not my passengers. Ues, they should respect your property and try not to spill/leave trash, but accidents happen. I don't think accidents should be 1 ⭐ed. Maybe 3 or 4 but not 1. The ONLY reason for someone to get a 1 ⭐ in my car is, you have to be downright just plain mean and disrespectful, like name calling, yelling etc. Imo, you just seem to be micromanaging your passengers.

[@cherylstubbs6924]

I agree with you on all your reasons and have had all those happen. I've had people wait til I arrive then call me and tell me they don't want the ride and say just cancel it.

The worst 1 star passenger was a family who got off at the airport and I had to take them to the border of Mexico. It was some Dad, Mom, and her 2 kids. Their kids cried the whole time. The line for the border was backed up about 2 miles due to the holidays. The lady asked if I could go off road into a ditch, go around the line, and cut back in. I said no and that this wasn't an off road vehicle. She continued to asked the SAME question another 4+ times. I told her NO then I eventually stopped answering her. She continued to ask if I would drive off road and to the border. She then said, "Since you didn't answer I can assume." I said their ride ended and put their stuff on the sidewalk. The guy started loading it back up. So I sat there till they got out and walked with some family down to the border. The guy waved me over before they left and said if his kids weren't there that he'd tone me up because I disrespected them. I laughed in his face and walked off. Buddy you aren't the victim here. You're weird wife asking me to ruin my city car to cut in front of people, in an area known for gun violence, to get you all across the border sooner is beyond unreasonable.

Yesterday I requested a Lyft, driver was talking in a cellphone connected to car speaker, so loud using swear words, but I didn't complain, suddenly a heavy rain starts, what make the short riding taking too long. After riding is done, I said thank you and hop off. I rated him 5 stars and all compliments. He gave me a low rate. Why? Because the rain? I didn't control the nature. This pissed me off!

[@425gabe]

Some criterion I use is overall attitude, but honestly it’s before they even get in the car. I can tell if a customer is not going to be worth picking up again. One thing that especially bothers me is when a customer doesn’t report the size of their party. Yes I may have 4 seats but I want to be able to manage my expectations and Uber doesn’t require this so it’s up to the customer to be transparent, they can disclose pax but they usually don’t think of it.

[@saucecastillo460]

I get what you're saying, but that doesn't bother me. I can take 4, if some/all of those 4 are big, either we make it work, or they can call an XL. But I won't take 5+, bc I'm extra strict on seatbelt usage

Thanks to everyone who voted for Prop 22 to make this happen in California, and for this KZbin channel to push Prop 22 with lies and deceit.

[@saucecastillo460]

Except for the thank you thing, which I think is ridiculous, bc nobody owes me a thank you, the rest is spot on. If you're calling an uber, either you're taking a short trip, or you need to get/bring your headphones, bc you knew you weren't going to be in your own car. And there's no acceptable situation for someone to be on speakerphone (call or media) in a shared space. If someone is on speaker at a restaurant, public transit, plane, etc they get side eyed. My car is no different & I always have music playing. So when people get in and get on speaker, it's rude AF. Loud conversations don't really bother me, but there are exceptions to that as well. Basically, it's not too much to ask of someone to be a decent human for the 10-60 min we're together.

[@bcandyolsen8077]

I am usually a good rider. I tell the driver how much the ride cost & if I am using a discount promo. I always thank the driver & ask how your day is going. And I always tip 20 to 30 percent. The only time I have rated lower than 5 stars is when the driver has left an unfair bad rating. Your can, find out, who gave you a bad rating. Also, when I have left something behind in the car and the driver won't respond. I am willing to pay the $20 fee to get it back. If you ghost me I may track you down to get it back.

[@saucecastillo460]

For me, every rider starts with 5 stars & any stars they lose, they earned it. Now there are some lesser known reasons I give low ratings, but all but 1, fall under common courtesy. Speakerphone Smelling like any kind of smoke Not covering your mouth when you cough/sneeze/yawn (happens a shockingly large amount of the time) Also the behavior of anyone riding with you directly affects your rating or if you request a ride for someone The one thing riders aren't aware of is changing the dropoff/adding a stop without asking me first. The reason is, once they get in, I might accept another fare & of I do & they change, it'll cancel that fare. Not to mention, if you wanna make a change, you should make me aware of that beforehand. But ultimately, just like some riders give bogus ratings, some drivers do as well. Also, how do you know you left something in the car? If you've lost it, it's possible you could've lost it anywhere. It doesn't mean the driver is keeping it

[@bullsfan531]

I only give 1 star if the customer is behaving bad. My default "unmatch" rating is 3 stars. One situation i will give 3 star is if the dropoff location is unattractive or the passenger just generally seems low class--even if they haven't violated the terms of service...does anyone else do that?

[@luxuryqueen42]

Drive people places, that's what you signed up for! If they add a stop mid trip, and its going to put you out of your way, or interfere with your schedule, you can just cancel the trip with them and let them get a different driver.. It's not like you are required to accept a ride or even mandated by the company to complete every ride 'without exception'. That is literally why that red button is there! 🙄

[@saucecastillo460]

The problem with adding stops without asking first is, I might have accepted another fare after they've gotten in the car. A fare that might pay really well and/or take me to an area I want to go to (either home or a busy area). But once they make that change, it cancels the fare I just accepted, costing me money. And the agreement is, I take you from the point A to point B you originally specified. If you want to change, that might be cool, but it's common courtesy to ask before you do it.

Riders can give any rating they want, even if it's not true. Also, ratings don't expire after 24hrs. Rating drop off as new ratings come in, and it's based on your last 500 rides. So if a rider gave you 1 star 100 rides ago, that's going to be there until you get 400 ratings better than 1 star. And remember, riders aren't obligated to rate drivers, so you could do 500 rides in a month & your rating could still be in the tank, bc riders aren't rating you. If you have good rides, you could ask them to rate you, just to make sure that bad ratings go away, but it's up to them

No uber driver that respects his or her ride lets any rider eat in their car. Many reasons for this that should not need to be explained.

Leaving dog hairs. Smoking blunts before getting in car. I get contact high. Leaving window open without closing. Some folks having bad days. Others have character issues.
