Concerns Over Road Safety in Punjab

Tragic road accidents continue to plague the region, with a recent incident near Khairpur claiming the lives of five individuals and leaving 14 others injured when a truck overturned on the highway. The alarming rate of fatalities in such accidents can be attributed to various factors, including poor driving skills, inadequate safety measures, failure to wear seatbelts, and substandard road infrastructure.

One of the common causes of road accidents in Punjab is the overcrowding of buses and trucks beyond their designated capacities, leading to instability and potential overturning of vehicles. It is imperative for authorities to address these issues promptly to prevent further loss of life on the roads.
