Reckless driving

Letter December 24, 2017
The police should strictly enforce regulations on speed limits and the traffic laws

LAHORE: Pakistan’s rapidly increasing population is adding more to the plethora of problems the country is already facing. The traffic situation in Lahore is haphazard and pathetic. It is high time that steps were taken to control reckless driving in a densely populated city. Just a few days ago, an old man narrowly escaped from being run over by a recklessly-driven car.

The police should strictly enforce regulations on speed limits and the traffic laws. The common people should pressure the police and other authorities to put a stop to reckless driving.

Irresponsible driving is often not only fatal for the person who is driving but also for those around.
