No, it seems you do not understand my view at all. I really wish you would read what I have stated in these threads a little more closely before putting word in my mouth that I have never said and never meant. Here is a quote from November that I re-quoted here once already:

"As I have stated, the majority of route taxi operators are hard working, honest and decent drivers trying to make a living. But you, as a visitor, do not have the years and years of daily experience with the route taxi system that all Jamaicans living here have - it is second nature to them. They instinctively know which taxis to use and not to get in, they were taught this as a child. There is no visitor to the island that has that same ability, and sometimes that even fails experienced Jamaicans."
