To begin, here are typical vehicles in these first two photos... Mazda and Toyota are the predominant most common makes, and the most common type of car is the mini van, but they are smaller than minivans in the USA
The above and below 2 photos go together
Below is a Honda CRV, but larger than the USA version
Mitsubishi Spacewagon, sold in other countries as the Chariot, Nimbus, and Expo

If you've lived in an American city in the last 30 years, you have probably come to know the ice cream trucks as annoying loudspeakers on wheels the have "Pop Goes the Weasel"
But in Jamaica it is a scratchbuilt sidecar (above of course) that plays a dozen christmas carols. It's a welcome change
The easiest way to spot a taxi is the red license plate, the regular vehicles are white plates
In many of the vans and small bus transporters they have seating that allows for 2 people on the drivers side, and single seats on the passenger side, but the aisle has flip up seats that are innovative, and allow for the aisle space to be used for more passengers
