it gives me the most accurate ride duration estimates.Since I began my driving career over two years ago, I have been using the navigation app called Waze. Drivers get low ratings most often for poor navigation and poor city knowledge. You exchange pleasantries, begin the ride, fire up the navigation system with turn by turn instructions and head off toward your destination.Īccording to internal Uber documents that we stole, how well you drive from point A to point B is the single greatest determinant of your star rating. You arrive, and let’s say for this example, the passenger is waiting for you on the street, ready to go. You accept the ride and use a navigation system to guide you to your pick up spot.

That is the sound of money! Either Uber or Lyft has found you a passenger that needs your services. You are driving down the street in your city and you hear that sound. But why is navigation so important and how can good navigation improve your rating?

It should be said, ActiveGlide is identical to the Blue Cruise hands-free system Ford debuted on the Mustang Mach-E and high-end trims of the F-150. The 7.5-hour drive seemed to pass by just a little bit quicker. For better or for worse, it allowed me to relax a bit more behind the wheel and as a result I was noticeably less fatigued by the time I got to my destination.
