Coco taxis, Havana

Coco taxis can be seen all over Havana, and a couple of other cities in Cuba. Scooter-driven, they're small, round, and not dissimilar to the motorised rickshaw and tuk-tuk of South-east Asia.

 

They're so-called because their shape is said to resemble half a coconut. And, like their Asian counterparts, they make a noise and can reach sometimes nerve-wracking speeds.
