Eh... Drivers are smart there. I think this is the only way to get rates to go back up.
If nobody wants to drive for a dollar a mile. That says a lot about the current fare rates. We are our own personal contractors so we can say what we would drive for.
That's why I don't get mad at people who say they should NOT tip us. It doesn't bother me they don't tip, but I won't pick them up unless they are three minutes away from me. For every 5 star I will drive out of my way, maybe 8 or 10 minutes away to pick them up. If I find out that 5 star doesn't tip. I will give a 4 star to let other drives and myself in the future that the PAX was a nice rider, but does not tip which I won't go out of my way to pick them up next time.
4.4 and lower, I don't even bother. I don't care if I'm the only car in a 20 mile radius. Their ass is walking to the bus stop or they are calling a taxi.
