Starting today, passengers will now be able to tell\u00a0the company if they feel that their co-passengers weren&#8217;t model Uber citizens.\u00a0If users rate a pool passenger anything lower than a 5 stars, a menu will appear which will have a choice which says &#8220;Co-rider behaviour&#8221;. While there&#8217;s no star system like with drivers, users can now let Uber know if they felt that their ride experience was hampered\u00a0because of their co riders.<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-26369 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/officechai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/unnamed-1.png?resize=440%2C694\" alt=\"uber pool rating co riders\" width=\"440\" height=\"694\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/officechai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/unnamed-1.png?w=440&amp;ssl=1 440w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/officechai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/unnamed-1.png?resize=190%2C300&amp;ssl=1 190w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 440px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 440\/694;\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">This has been a much-requested feature for Uber worldwide, and even in India.

Uber&#8217;s aggressively promoting its Pool product across the world, because it leads to higher fill rates, more income for drivers, and more available rides for passengers. Fixing the Pool experience is critical to users adopting it in greater numbers, which makes it even more useful for everyone else.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">And Uber&#8217;s betting big on ratings in other ways too &#8212; the company is also making it easier for riders to see their own ratings. Uber drivers rate their passengers after each ride, and riders with low scores can even be banned from using the service. Thus far,\u00a0the cumulative score was hidden away into a sub menu for riders. Now Uber is going to prominently display riders&#8217; scores right below their names, constantly reminding them of how drivers have thought they behaved.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size:
