our people become very much excited on events like EID ,14 august.we drive blindly.i have seen so many news on tv regarding accidents from last 2 days.its really sad.we must learn to control and manage our emotion and excitements.otherwise they can ruin us and there will be nothing to compensate it.
All this dreadful scenario of death and destruction, is the direct outcome of our un-maintained, dilapidated, dumpy roads, broken due to heavy, excessive un-manageable rush of rashly driven by mostly illiterate, un-educated, untrained/unlicenced/underaged so-called drivers of trucks, loaders, buses rickshaws, and of late too many motorcycles seen on roads with half a dozen family kids, being driven by teenagers, knowing none of the traffic rules are the main causes of accidents which result in casualties/deat.The papulation is growing at fast rate and it means that none of our system will work out with real solution and our day to day life will go from worse to worst.Our rulers and overburdened beaurocracy has no time to see beyond their nose and solve the real issues of our 70 percent illiterate society,a shameful status, being maintained by mafias of different greed-ridden,corrupt, dominent people all arround.
