These qualities, she told The Sunday Gleaner, are key ingredients behind her successful enterprise even as many of her male colleagues plying the Waterford to Portmore Mall route in St Catherine are haemorrhaging from a drastic decline in passengers since the COVID-19 pandemic gripped Jamaica.

“Me make more money when the place did under lockdown the other day than any other time,” Legister said as she spoke to The Sunday Gleaner on a trip from Portmore Mall to Waterford last Thursday.

Legister was among several taxi operators and commuters inside the Portmore Mall who last week were shocked by a breakdown of the Portmore communities with confirmed coronavirus cases.

Government restrictions on the number of passengers who can travel in taxis, in order to limit the spread of the deadly virus, have driven some cabbies who would normally ply the Gregory Park and Greater Portmore route to switch to providing chartered services outside the municipality.

“If you don’t travel with your sanitiser as a taxi driver right now, it’s like is a death sentence you calling down on yourself,” proclaimed Richie Richards, who operates on the Greater Portmore route, adding that the current climate has been the toughest ever for him and his colleagues on that route.
