Mmmmm... explain how this would be classed as dishonesty? Unless of course you are suggesting that the drivers sign a contract and are obliged to work for the operator.
I would suggest that a driver is a free entity working with, or for whom so ever they wish, getting the best deal for themselves.
I'm suggesting that drivers do what they think is best for them. If they wish to be taken over without any benefit for them, then so be it. But I much prefer the option that the boys and girls that are at the dirty end, benefit as well.
As for signing a contract, well if the owners of the firm I work with offered me an incentive to sign a contract, saying that I will stay with them for a certain period, then if that incentive was good enough, I would sign it.
If not, then I wouldn't. Freedom of choice are the words, I believe.
