NASSAU, BAHAMAS – For many Bahamians, using public transportation is a daily reality. The jitney, as it’s known locally, is the primary mode of travel for countless people heading to work, school, or just even to run errands. But for many riders, frustrations are mounting.
Videos like the ones we showed on television, show the reckless driving by some jitney drivers.

Meantime, their passengers are uging the government intervene.
