Yaadrides left 'rideless' but not lifeless
Yesterday produced yet another example of how crime going down and how safe Jamaica is(according to that poll in March 2006). The operators of www.yaadrides.com where to come to shocking reality at sometime after 2:30 p.m. on November 22, 2006 that the myth of a safe Jamaica is just that.
For a long time, every time I see my car after waking up, going to work and after any function, I give thanks. Here it is, a teacher of a school in Kingston Jamaica who parks his old 1990 Nissan Sunny motor car under the same tree he has done for years. He goes to class as usual only to this time to return to see the spot. The security at the exit gate who know him well, can only say that they never knew it was not him who was driving out the car.
Only a few weeks ago, another co-worker's father lost his Vitara to the hands to these crooks. You here crazy stories of a 2001 Mitsubishi Evolution being stolen on Ripon Road in Kingston Jamaica, then being found in Porus and taken to the Porus police station. Later in the same day, within four hours the reports say, the vehicle is then stolen again from the police station. Yes, believe it although it sounds crazy, it is true.
The only comforting thing is that, where there is life there is hope and, it is better to be left 'rideless' than lifeless.

Yaadrides.com ride has been found but not before changes have been made. These changes included chassis numbers(plate and stamp), Engine, rims (crissas to basic), front seats and bumpers. Simply removed and not found are CD player and muffler. No one was arrested.
