I agree that they are. If you're about to miss your exit with a passenger, you might take a risky swerve across a lane to avoid getting a bad rating. Having said that, I still don't think there are lots of Uber drivers racking up tickets, because that gets you fired from your job. So it's a problem for employment, but not a salary factor - by luck or skill, any given Uber driver will still have ~0 tickets.
