my husband says he now feels comfortable enough to drive in ja next time we go- he wanted to get a lay of the land before he took the wheel himself.
the driving landscape in ja is exactly the same as in haiti (mountains, city, coastal, lot of blind spots, random animals, big trucks, crazy drivers, etc.) but the roads are a million times better. and you have to drive on the left. i think it's the "driving on the left" thing that made my husband want to be overly cautious.
i don't drive at all, so someone's gonna be driving me somewhere, regardless.
