Underage drivers

It has become evident that the streets of Turbat are witnessing far too many accidents and incidents caused by inexperienced and unlicensed drivers. Driving is a task that requires skill, experience, and, most importantly, a valid driver’s license. However, it is concerning to note that many individuals, including young teenagers, operate these vehicles without proper training or legal authorization. As a result, we are witnessing a rise in road accidents, injuries, and even fatalities. The careless attitude of these unlicensed drivers not only endangers their own lives but also poses a significant threat to the safety of pedestrians and other motorists on the road.

Every day, we hear of tragic incidents that could have been prevented if proper measures were in place. I would like to urge the government to take immediate and decisive action to address this issue. Measures should be implemented to ensure that only licensed and trained individuals are permitted to operate vehicles on our roads. This may include stricter enforcement of traffic laws, increased police presence on the streets, and educational campaigns to raise awareness about the dangers of reckless driving.
