I was surprised to see vehicles pass by me at really high speed even in the dense fog
RAWALPINDI: I was travelling by car from Lahore to Islamabad on the M-2 on January 11, 2015. I left Lahore around 11am and it was quite foggy there. The weather mostly remained humid till Bhera, and the visibility varied between 100 to 300 metres all along. I was naturally careful and drove at a slow speed, keeping to the left of the road and within the speed limit.
However, I was surprised to see vehicles pass by me at really high speed even in the dense fog. There is a need for the Motorway Police to strictly regulate the implementation of speed limits to prevent fatalities.
