A concerning trend has emerged in Turbat of unlicensed child drivers being employed by families, with some as young as 10-12 years old. These children are freely operating vehicles, and adults are openly allowing them to disregard the legal driving age limit. Not only is that against the law but also leads to a myriad of potentially dangerous and even fatal situations for all parties involved.
There is a glaring need for stricter enforcement of licensing regulations, road safety regulations and child labour laws. Authorities are urged to take immediate action to address this issue and ensure the well-being of both the children and the community.
Effective measures should be implemented to prevent children from engaging in driving activities and to provide them with access to education and a safe childhood.
