seems to me like an easy fix would be to simply adjust the ratings based on the person doing the rating... if someone almost always gives five stars, and they gave a four? there was probably a reason. but that person who always gives 3 stars? four stars from them is probably a good thing.

Basically, giving anything less than a 5 means that they should be fired. Most people, while they may not have had an outstanding ride, don't think the ride was bad enough to warrant someone getting fired, so they just rate 5 stars.
- lsc 9y agoright, I think most people give mostly fives because of this. I've probably given less than 5 less-than-five ratings, and I've been using these services almost daily for more than a year. But, some people never give 5 star ratings. The way things are now? I think that what a driver's rating is depends more on if they get me or if they get a "nobody's perfect" rater than it depends on their actual driving ability. If the ratings were adjusted by the rater, I think the end result would be a rating system that better reflected the things they are trying to rate than the luck of who they get rating them.
