THE Sindh Chief Minister`s decision on compulsory helmets for motorcyclists and pillion riders is a crucial step towards preventing fatal injuries.
Will this step reduce road accidents caused due to reckless driving by motorcyclists? In recent years, motoring, especially in Karachi, has become a nerve-racking experience owing to irresponsible driving, especially by motorcyclists, who not only put their own lives in danger but are a menace to others.
Riding against traffic flow has become the rule than an exception and thattooin the presence of traffic policemen. I request the Sindh chief minister to take appropriate steps in this regard.
