A lot of accidents are being caused in the DHA due to racing cars and rash driving among youths. This is an extremely serious issue as it has resulted in three fatalities, 19 injuries and 45 wrecked cars during the past six months in DHA Phase VIII alone.
An unusually high rate of automobile accidents points to the fact that there has been a major oversight at the town planning stage of Phase VIII. Most accidents have occurred on a two-km stretch on the new portion of Khayaban-i-Shaheen from Khayaban-i-Ittehad up to Creek Vista.
The DHA Cantonment Board should take action against it because it is putting innocent people’s lives in danger. Parents should not allow their children to drive carelessly. There should be traffic police officers to strictly control such activities.
The situation can certainly be rectified as soon as possible without causing much hassle to anyone.
