Three centuries ago Johann Wolfgang von Goethe said, warning those who touched heights of incompetence. "It has been said that figures rule the world. May be. But I am sure that figures show us whether it is being ruled well or badly". Let us see our face now in the mirror of comity of the world for road safety in Pakistan.
When will we wake up for the road safety of our generation? My son and car driver died when a container overturned on his car at Jam Sadiq Ali bridge on 4th August, 2006. Please remember them in your dua.
