Neither of the playable Mushroom People have red spots and a blue vest, so neither one of them is Toad.
As for all the other Mushroom People in games like
SMRPG and
SM 64, portrayed identically with red spots and blue vests, I always assume them to be generics unless they're specifically identified as "Toad" (as opposed to "a Toad").
This guy is Toad, because
the Toad has been playable in Mario sports titles ever since
Super Mario Kart.
This guy
might be Toad, but only if he's designated as such. Otherwise he's probably just another generic Mushroom Person.
This guy isn't Toad. He's just one of many generic Mushroom People you meet in the original
SMB.
