And quite frankly the business model might be to just bank on a steady supply of ex-criminals who have a hard time getting other work and may not understand the financial arrangement they are entering into. Exploit them for a while and when they realize they aren’t making money, just chalk it up to built-in turnover and on to the next unwitting driver.

Following the long established model used by couriers, despatch riders etc. It appears to work only temporarily until the real maintenance and depreciation costs become apparent. Not exactly an ethical base upon which to build - scamming your drivers until they realise it's effectively a scam.
