Perverted driver
I was just riding Uber Express with another passenger who was a young woman. After dropping her off, the driver took some time to check her out. I noticed this because I sat in the backseat and observed the driver's eye movements through the rearview mirror.

If other aspects of the ride were without incident, how should I rate this driver?

You forgot the "going to one door different than he wanted" and various other things.

I'd give him a 5, because clearly he wasn't blind, unlike seemingly some drivers.

Im struggling to understand how the driver was "perverted"..... Such behaviour may be unacceptable to many in this day and age... but perverted?

The driver looked to be 3 times her age.

It's actually the opposite of perverted. Men admiring attractive women is pretty normal behavior.

How is her attractiveness (obviously subjective) remotely related to your fear of the perverted driver? Have you considered hiring a full-time driver from your church?

The fact that you chose to post this on a public internet social media forum says a lot about you. The fact that others (including me) chose to respond says a lot about them (and me).

Where did I say I feared the driver?

Is there an autocorrect feature going on in this forum where the words I type are replaced by others?

Perhaps the driver was making sure she was clear of traffic before leaving.

As for your rating, how did he drive you?

There is no need for us to get Socratic here. The onus is on you to bring the pervert to justice!
