Over 40,000 people<\/a> in Singapore have chosen to embrace the private-hire car driver profession due to its flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine being able to take a trip to Malaysia, fetch your kids to school, co-share the vehicle with your family members as well as have no bosses to report to \u2013 that\u2019s the kind of flexibility that being a PHV driver gets to enjoy. Is flexibility what you are looking for in a job? Then this may just be the right profession to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How\u2019s the P2P market now?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of now, the demand for point-to-point (P2P) transport is overwhelming due to the lifting of restrictions. Drivers are finding it easier to receive higher incentives due to more trips being completed. Even nightlife has resumed, much to the delight of night-shift drivers. In fact, demand far outstrips supply at times so this is the right time to venture into the P2P business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Submit and obtain approval from the Land Transport Authority (LTA);<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrange for a medical check-up and X-ray at any local medical or X-ray clinic (You may obtain a referral letter from us); and<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s car rental like?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It depends on the car model and the age of the car. Rental rates range from $50 to $115 per day. What\u2019s more, you can have a relief driver to share the rental if you want. We have sleek and economical four-seater sedans, classy and stylish SUVs, and also bigger MPVs that suit all your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s the earning like?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On average, most PHV drivers take home about net daily average income of about $200 (based on average how many hours?). Some could earn more, while others less than the average, depending on the number of hours one is willing to drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
