Traffic accidents order of the day in Balochistan
Traffic accidents are almost the order of the day on the Quetta-Karachi, Zhob, Chaman, Jaccobabad routes. Traffic accidents have claimed scores of precious human lives in various parts of Balochistan. Poor, narrow road conditions, over-speeding, and reckless driving are the main causes behind the increasing number of road accidents in Balochistan. The provincial government is yet to ensure traffic rules in the province that covers half of the country in terms of area.
