I estimate one urvan van can take up to 10 kids max.

I think for B40, must at least earn 4k max. So maybe they charge RM 500 per student for a month?

So revenue = 5,000
less van loan instalment = 1000
less fuel cost = 1500
Profit = 2500

Damn how to survive? one month only earn 2500 in 2025 ?

Also how does van school driver find their passengers? do they like register with the school then ask school to find students want to use their service?

I saw some school vans put up cell phone number advertise on their van.

Simple they just illegal squeeze kids over the cap and drive multiple rounds.
If not mistaken, yellow van is 15 ppl max.

My house to high school was ~7km distance, calculate about RM 200/month

The school van ferry 6 schools in my area with 3 vans drivers are a family couple + a son.

Some of these primary and secondary schools operates two sessions.
Not mistaken atleast have 100.


Oh ya meet back my Van Driver auntie yesterday, still driving that old van that pick me up since 2007... laugh.gif

> if above 7km, the charge can go higher ?
> does van driver charge like that?

Yes, but that RM 200 pricing was in 2014 the last time I rode.

>so if driver makes 2 morning session rounds, can earn up to 6k
>then 2 afternoon session, can earn another 6k
> I am not sure if van can pick up 2 times in morning, maybe 630am reach school and another round 715am ?
provided full capacity

Last time purposely need to wake up 5.30am in the morning, just to sit van to school, which arrive around 6am, then reach school 6.30am.

School starts at 7.30am. Can atleast fetch 2 rounds.
But then got 3 van drivers. laugh.gif

Your mileage may vary.
