Why is it considered unsafe to transport large groups of people in vans?
The National Highway Traffic Commission has issued warnings about the dangers of transporting large numbers of passengers in vans, as they are more prone to rollover. Vans are not engineered to carry the weight limit an MFSAB vehicle can carry and are often overloaded when at full capacity with passengers and luggage. MFSAB vehicles like MyBus are built with safety features such as sturdy steel roll cages to withstand a rollover, compartmentalized passenger seating in case of an accident and rugged body construction for side impact protection.
