Almost none of which they need to keep. Route for 30 days perhaps, start and end point for longer. I imagine most ratings are just that with no comments.

Routes determine pay to drivers, so they probably have to keep it much longer in case of a pay dispute.

They could just give a digitally signed copy to the drivers and have the onus be on them to keep it.
