It is high time that proper steps are taken to put a stop to the reckless driving of motor cars and other vehicles in the streets of our thickly populated city. In fact, just few days ago, A little girl was crossing the road (Manzoor Colony) when a truck came at a very speed and killed an innocent girl.

This is just one such incident as many women and children who try to cross the roads of this overpopulated city become victims to such reckless driving. This has caused many fatal accidents. Undoubtedly, regulations regarding speed limit do exist in the city, but the drivers pay no heed. The police also take little or no notice of these offenders; therefore, accidents are almost a daily occurrence.

I would like to emphasize that the police must strictly enforce the regulations regarding limit and the public, who are the worst sufferers, must bring pressure to bear upon the police and other authorities to put a stop to reckless and negligent driving so that lives of citizens are not put at risk.
