How do you know they are full time taxi drivers? This would suggest they are not going to college and before long their visa would therefore be revoked.
It is possible to work part time on a student visa once the dispensation has been obtained.

Taxi driving is a business and as a sole trader there is no way to measure or control hours worked (part time or full time) etc. or track cash in hand transactions. There are several small colleges in Melbourne which charge fees and mark positive student attendance.No cap (or time limit) on the back to back renewal of student visa is something which DIAC must look into.
