Karachi’s massive population requires a proper transportation system. Unfortunately, the city’s public transport is anything but efficient. We still have old buses with unreliable schedules, forcing passengers to look for alternatives. And, even when you manage to board one, the reckless driving makes it seem like the drivers do not even care about their own lives, let alone their passengers.
If Karachi’s buses were safe and well-maintained, many people who currently prefer bikes or private cars just to avoid this chaotic transport system would willingly switch to public transport, which would also help reduce traffic and pollution.
