So if drivers are not accepting your trip request, it will get bumped further and further away from you, and your wait time will increase.
This could become a problem. I know from experience that a number of UberPool drivers in NYC give 3 or 4 stars to all Pool riders, as a matter of course. That has had an impact on my rating.
