However, each driver is different and has their own preferences.
Yes, some passengers will get declined once, maybe twice, maybe even three times.
The counter-argument to the first point is simple.
How far will uber drive drivers#
Since up to this point, we drivers were not privy to the destinations, we took the passenger wherever they wanted to go. Second, certain areas of town are deemed undesirable and even dangerous to drive. For example, let’s say the traffic on a bridge is very bad, and you can see the ride will take you across the bridge, then no driver will accept the ride and that tarnishes Uber’s product for passengers. First, some passengers who have a particularly difficult ride will not get picked up. The argument against this kind of information in the hands of drivers has always been twofold. The driver will be given more information on which to base your decision to accept or decline a ride. In the past, there was no decline button, but you could remove them from queue by going to the trip planner and doing it manually/stopping new requests. Additional riders will still be auto-added to the queue, but you will see all the same information and now have the option to decline the ride. This feature will also work with Uber Pool. This is a tremendous amount of knowledge for any driver to determine if this is a ride worth accepting. Finally, we can look at the map and see the pick-up and drop-off point.Īdditionally, you can still see the type of ride, which in this case is UberX, the passenger’s rating and the ETA on the map (7 minutes, it used to be in the card). Next, we can see the estimated distance and duration of the ride. In this example, the driver can expect to earn $14 to $19 dollars. First, you will be told the approximate value of the ride. Going forward, this is what you can expect to see when you get a ping, on every single trip. They say a picture says a thousand words, so let’s look at this screenshot from Uber: Dollars, Distance, Duration, and Direction Uber Announces New Features for California Drivers Let’s jump into these three features and I will lead with the most exciting one first. This will be a phased roll-out, which means that 30% of CA drivers will get the new features to start and the rest of California will gain access to these new features over the next month.įor now, this is a California-only program, but it sounds like it could be coming to other states as well in the future. We just got word today that Uber will be rolling out three new features to California drivers on Tuesday – December 3, 2019. What is the world coming to? Something I have wanted for the last four years is finally coming to an Uber driver app near you!
