Uber drivers have been rating passengers for years and for the first-time riders will finally be able to see exactly what drivers think of them

•The rating breakdown will be available to all Uber users in the privacy center.

Uber on Wednesday announced that it will help clear up some of the confusion when it comes to passenger’s average rating.

For years, Uber drivers have been rating their passengers, but now the riders will be able to see their ratings- how many times you were awarded a 5-star rating, how many times you got one-star.

The ratings will not only help you but also help inform other drivers’ decisions on whether to accept your request.

The rating breakdown will be available to all Uber users in the privacy center, which is accessed by logging in to the account online or in the application.

Here are the steps to follow to access the privacy center and rating breakdown in the app:

• Go to settings menu, tap privacy and then privacy center
• In the privacy center, swipe to the right and click “would you like to see a summary of how you use Uber”
• Scroll down to the “browse your data” section and tap on “view my ratings” to see the breakdown 

In addition to viewing your ratings, users can also review their past trip information, payment details, control marketing preferences and more in the privacy center section.

Here is how to improve your rating

• Pack it in, pack it out: Drivers shouldn’t have to clean up after you. Always make sure to take your trash and any other belongings with you. Don’t leave a mess behind.
• Buckle Up: Studies show that unbuckled passengers in the back seat can put the driver at greater risk of injury in a crash. So always remember to buckle up for safety.
• Be ready: Remember that drivers’ time is valuable and they should not have to wait for you. A smooth pickup is better for everyone so be ready to go when the driver arrives.
• Treat everyone and everything with respect: Treat your driver and their vehicle as you would want to be treated.
• Don’t slam the door! It is easy to accidentally slam a door if you aren’t thinking about it, and drivers have consistently cited door slams as a reason why they would give you a bad rating.
