You couldn't be more right SazO. Even though useful information is being given to both newcomers to Jamaica, as well as seasoned travelers, some people find this information to be an affront to their own sensibilities. Personally, I have used route taxis in the past and haven't had any problems. However, I never flagged one down. They were always alone and looking for fares. After negotiations on price I felt as comfortable with them as with most other drivers. A couple of times if a driver gave me the wrong vibe, I simply told them that I would just walk and went on my way until I found a driver I was comfortable with. I will definitely keep my guard up higher on all of my future trips, but I am sure that I will have occasions where I will use a route taxi again.
Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials, and I hope you guys have an excellent time!! Jah Bless!!
