I am writing to share my horrific experience on a bus ride from Hub Chowki to Karachi. The bus was packed beyond capacity, with seats so small that two people couldn't even sit comfortably. But that did not stop the conductor from cramming in more passengers, forcing people to sit on each other's laps. It was like being trapped in a sardine can. The bus stopped every 10 minutes, and we'd be stuck there for another 10 minutes. I was gasping for air, and I wasn't the only one.
There were patients on board who were exhausted and struggling to breathe. I humbly request the transport authorities to do something about this problem. An overloaded bus is a disaster waiting to happen. It is not just uncomfortable but dangerous. We must regulate the number of passengers allowed on buses and make sure conductors follow the rules.
