ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI – The constant traffic congestion is a thorn in the side for many motorists in Road Town but at least one man can ease through the nightmare like a breeze.

On Friday December 23, 2011, Virgin Islands News Online's camera captured this iconic image of this Virgin Islander with his ever present companion- donkey.

He is an attraction for tourists and can often be seen around Road Town.

    He needs to speak properly to the tourists, I have heard him be quite rude to a couple of them.
