Summarize this article:

Once you're cleared to drive, you can start picking up customers. Everything is handled through the Uber Driver app on your smartphone. If you have multiple vehicles registered to you as an Uber driver, make sure the correct vehicle is selected in the app before going online. This will make your car available for hire and you'll be taken to the map screen. You'll receive trip requests when you are the closest car to the rider when they request a ride. Try to drive around busy areas to ensure that you're receiving lots of requests. You'll have 30 seconds to accept the request before it is given to another driver. You're rated on how quickly you accept requests, so it's recommended that you tap it as soon as it appears. When a ride request appears, tapping anywhere on the screen will accept it. You can follow the map on your screen, or tap the Navigate button to get turn-by-turn directions. Your rider may not be ready when you reach the pickup spot. Give them a minute or two before trying to contact them. If your rider hasn't appeared after a couple minutes, you can contact them through the app:  Tap the Checklist button in the upper-right corner. Tap the Contact button under your rider's name. Send a text message to the rider. Make sure you're picking up the right person. This is especially important in busy areas where multiple Uber drivers may be operating. It is illegal to pick up riders who have not requested a ride through the Uber app. This will switch the app to your rider's destination. Make sure to confirm the destination with the rider in case they entered it incorrectly or want to go somewhere else. Try to take the quickest route if you know it, or tap the Navigate button for turn-by-turn directions. Quicker trips will result in better ratings. This will end the trip and send the fare to the rider's Uber app. Your rider will be rating you and you will be rating your rider. It's recommended to give 5 stars unless you encountered significant problems. Tap Complete Rating after selecting the rating you want to give.
