    Re: Assaulted by a cab driver?

    Iriesistah,

    The original information that was posted on TA has been removed by TA. There was also a secondary thread started by someone not involved in the incident about the same incident which was also removed.

    The original poster of the information has never posted the information here on Negril.com or anywhere else on the internet as far as I can tell. There has been posts made by the second person in the vehicle, and that information has been posted on a site that Negril.com has had legal issues with in the past including libel. Because of this fact, we have been informed by our lawyers that any direct references to this website should not be allowed.

    In regards to this advice, the second person in the vehicle has tried to make a couple posts here - but her posts did not offer any further information or description other than posting the link to this same website that I mentioned above.
    Negril.com - For the vacation that never ends!

    With a little research I was able to find the email address of the original TA poster. I emailed her and asked if she would share her story with me as I too travel alone sometimes and use taxis. She responded to me and told me the whole REAL story. It is terrible and frightening.
    She also asked that it just all be dropped because she needs to move on and put this behind her.

Especially as a woman who travels solo, I like to exercise caution as needed.

    Absolutely right Sweetness! Just because someone is on vacation does not mean bad things won't happen. Jamaica is not void of crime just because we find it heaven on earth! Common sense will get you far in life... duh!

    BTW.. It would be nice to be able to write a rebuttal on TA to let this person know that before heading to someone else's country you should be smart enough to research the do's & don'ts & the how to's... again I guess that's where common sense would come into play!
    Yes, do a little research in advance (especially when traveling solo) and always bring the common sense along... and I am sure SWEETNESS would agree. lol

    Good 'nuff. I certainly hope she soon recovers and is someday able to look at this as one of life's harder learned lessons. Despite all the red plate/white plate talk, the bottom line is that we should always use caution, no matter where we are but especially when far from home and in no way do we mean to blame the victim.

    Bless & PEACE.

    She did verify with me that it indeed WAS a red plate taxi.
