No. Returning home a few trips ago, as we were pulling away from the airport my wife realized that our driver was a fairly unstable patient at the mental hospital she works out. So no, taking a taxi is not always safe. But I just do not see how Jamaica is different from home or anywhere else as far as public transportation.
You were not robbed by a route taxi.
You were robbed by a stolen taxi.
There is a difference.
