With the rate cuts in most Uber markets, drivers have been forced to increasingly cancel/not accept passengers that are too far away, likely to go short distances, going to a place where there won't be able to pick up or outside of a surge zone. While typically the driver doesn't know the passenger's destination, over time they've gotten better at finding out or predicting the destination.
Because of this, Uber has been penalizing drivers that cancel too much despite drivers being "Independent Contractors".
