Moose,
This is the new look for route taxis only. The transportation unions (JUTA, JCal, Maxi) are working with the Transport Authority and JTB (Jamaica Tourist Board) in developing a new look for their vehicles as well, but it is a much less critical situation due to the high number of "robot" illegal taxis.
The Transport Authority have been cracking down on illegal taxis hard, impounding vehicles and seizing the plates. Needless to say, any passengers are required to exit the vehicles and find legal transportation. The illegal taxis know what they are doing is illegal and there is no effort being made by the Transport Authority to assist the illegal taxis in "legitimizing" them as they have no desire to be legit in the first place.
