We Pakistanis normally do not reach office in time but at traffic signal when it turns to green, everyone puts extra effort to cross before it turns to red.We are a smart nation.

Very sad indeed. No parent should go through this. We as a nation are very illiterate when it comes to road safety. Something must be done to properly educate people about all the rules of driving.

Did the VIPs also attend the burial of his friend? I suppose he was just a commoner. Show dignity to both victims.
