Thanks for these amazing photos Dr. Fried!

Haitians use their heads to their advantage:
When you don't have a vehicle and it's too heavy for your head, you cart it using the strength of your body, like this man transporting cases of soft drinks down the middle of the road

Haitian Transportation
Tap Taps full to the brim and Motos - the most common modes of transportation

Check out the chickens strung up by their claws on the back of this moto
We saw donkeys transporting goods and belongings but this was not as common as motos and tap taps. The more fortunate have automobiles.
