No more than four people please
No more than four people please
No more than four people please

And they still keep piling in. I know I'm getting a one star for not allowing them 5 in the car, but that's fine. I guess this is the downside of late night weekend driving.

I guess I could cancel the trip right away right? Problem there is you have to get the six people out of the car. I had two people open my SUV back on their own and jump in. I was irate.
Just WOW....Grow some balls..

The few times things have started to go very bad in my car, i reply with following "Getting stupid in my car will have the same outcome as getting stupid in my home"

Hay, uber passengers do as you please in your private car,
Sh!t, p!ss, fart, throw up, smoke crack, vape, drink beer, seat two to a seat, have sex, slap your girl, use the "N" word in your conversation even though anyone can clearly see that i am black, hay I will even give oral to any man or woman on request, I am uber, I am here for you,

and after all that give me 1,2,3 or 4-stars, but not 5 because 5-stars is excellent (perfect) and i am no where near perfect,.

In the last three weeks i have personally seen in the manhattan beach area CA, two uber cars with too many passengers pulled over by the manhattan beach police, no tip is worth the risk..

I've found that being polite and sincere has always worked. Case in point. Had a pickup at a local hot spot. Seven women come out, a bridal shower party. I was smiling and politely mentioned that I can only legally carry four, would they mind calling for a second car? They were like, yeah, sure, no problem.

A funny side note, the girl sitting up front was fascinated by my shifter, she'd never seen a manual transmission before and kept saying "wow" with big amazed eyes as I was shifting.
Have some respect for yourself and at the same time protect your rating:

Having to tell passenger, you can't do this or that = Cancel
3 or more for uber pool = Cancel
5 or more for my uberX = Cancel
Call or text, to ask "Where are you?" = Cancel
Call or text, with something like "your ETA was 4 minutes 5 minutes a go" = Cancel
Call or text to tell me i passed the location = Cancel
Call or text about wrong pin location, but don't acknowledge your mistake = Cancel
All passenger(s) under 18 yo = Cancel
Asking me to wait for friend that's still in bar = Cancel
call or text with directions to their location = Cancel
Telling me I could have been 1 minutes earlier if i had turned on the other street = Cancel
too many to list all, but you get the picture..

Or just stay at home and really lock in that precious 5* rating. LOL. This approach, mostly NOT.
Not everyone is written in stone there's obviously exception, if someone breaks an uber rule and tries to get away with it,
like trying to put 3 or more people in your car after requesting and Uber pool or saying something like "hey you passed me two times were you lost"

why do you want someone in your car that has already expressed that they think you are stupid, that has already disrespected you and is now being told they can't do something that they wish to do,

I have more respect for myself, my uber rating and my car there's an old saying in business "Not all money is good money"

Yes it does say that in the app.

Maximum is defined thus in Webster:
"noun, plural maximums, maxima [mak-suh-muh] (Show IPA)
1.the greatest quantity or amount possible, assignable, allowable, etc.
2.the highest amount, value, or degree attained or recorded.
3.an upper limit allowed or allowable by law or regulation.

Now where does it say, in the definition of "maximum", that an I/C can be deactivated for transporting less than the maximum? Again, Have. You. Read. Your. Driver. Agreement?
I apologize to the moderator in advance for the following comment to the poster.

Are you a troll or just playing stupid, it says "max size 4 people that means the client can have a maximum of 3 guests and self that equals a max of four passengers, the four people max message is on the client app not the driver App, you are expected by uber to have 4 seats available for your client.

You can easily spot the posters who have never been an uber client and never intend to use the service, imagine you order and Uber for yourself and three friends or family and this driver shows up and tells you "sorry I can only take three passengers request another car" this poster is a deactivation in progress,

I am an uber client I request an uber two or six times a week, if a driver pulled that s*** me, I would fire off so many emails to uber support, i would become that drivers worst CSR nightmare.

From a logical point of view I believe you are correct, there is no actual number in my drivers agreement. I have however gotten communications from Uber stating that we are not allowed to have a ride along, it makes pax uncomfortable and we need to be able to handle 4 pax. Bottom line is that they regularly deactivate people for stuff that's not in the agreement and I'm sure that if people complain about a cancellation fee because you wouldn't take 4, the csr will take the fee right off.

With that said, totally agree that you shouldn't allow yourself to be blackmailed by the potential loss of precious stars.
What the hell, blackmail, what are you talking about, why are you entertaining this idiot,
you were tolled your car needed to seat 4 passengers when you signed-up, the client app says 4 people max, if the client APP says 4 people max, then your car needs to seat 4 passengers, you can hate uber all you want, but no misunderstanding here, it's clear and we all know it..

Your prerogative. I respect my cash flow. You can keep your precious stars. I've got over 12,000 of them. But my creditors only accept US currency in payment. They don't want my f'ing stars either. GUber On!

No emails to CSR necessary. You have already become the worst nightmare. Another over indulged, self-entitled rider, posing here as an GUBerx driver. Sigh. Driver I/Cs are legally bound by the DRIVER AGREEMENT. Not your stupid Rider App, GUber's Website, their ridiculous radio ads, or the Rider Agreement. And you can "fire off" all the emails you want to customer support. The robots there love responding to them.

I had a great one the other night. Pulled up to 5, rolled the window down and informed them I could only hold 4. One girl was like that's fine, I didn't want to go out anyway. I agreed to take the others since it seemed like they were amicable. After we get in and I get them to tell me the address, I start driving and they start a speel about how all the other drivers take 5. Blah blah blah. It's only a 3 minute trip so I don't throw them out. After parking they go off on me. I tell them all the other drivers are idiots and will loose their insurance and licenses if they're caught or in an accident. When they finally get out they practically ripped the door off and left a gash in my door.

On a side note, uber has still not replied to my serious passenger issue from almost 48 hours
