In Karachi, a majority of fatal accidents occur because bus drivers struggle to comply with traffic regulations. It has been observed that bus drivers have a tendency to flout speed limits. This is largely because some of these drivers indulge in races and are in a hurry to reach a destination before the other. As a result, they drive recklessly through busy thoroughfares, putting the lives of passengers at risk.
In addition, bus drivers do not stop buses at designated stops. They stop the buses wherever they want to and disturb the smooth flow of traffic. The authorities concerned must take steps to ensure that all motorists, including bus drivers, comply with traffic rules. Heavy financial penalty should be imposed on those who violate traffic rules.
