The tragic accident left us with priceless reduction of lives. Indeed very shocking and heartbreaking. Although, it is believed that such terrible accidents are inevitable but somewhere i believe we still can help reduce if not completely terminate them. The time buses and coasters leave for Chitral can be one of the reasons of such accidents which has recently happened. Drivers need to be fully focused and attentive while driving but I am sure continuous driving from night till the morn gets your head down to sleep. The same case goes with the drivers who take passengers from Islamabad and Peshawar to Chitral. Passengers are taken around 8 to nine PM. In the very morning with red eyes, brain with extreme fatigue the drivers reach Lowari pass. Surprisingly, then he is expected to reach the destiny safely in combating that zigzag scary roads while half in slumber. Its hardly logically possible. If such incidents happen further, more accidents are viable. We should come on a platform and take decisions about changing the inappropriate departure timings. This may prove to help reduce accidents especially on Lowari top.
