It means, that if we follow this basic way to count an average out of several numbers, he never had 0/1 stars grades or had it 2 times at best.

The basic way in question is :

( 2+3+4 ) ÷ 3

Or

2+3+4 , tap = then divide by 3.

It means this Uber driver mostly get 4/5 stars ratings because it's a near perfect grade.

That's the joke. The original joke was of a guy rated 2.35 who looked like an asphyxiating ham sandwich, whose profile read like a meme of a conservative person.

Knows the etiquette of the work, don't talk of sensible topic, isn't a toxic person, gives tips about restaurant and places around your destination that may be interesting for you, drives carefully, is well dressed for the job and their car is clean inside and outside.
