Altaf Bukhari urges authorities to impose strict rules preventing reckless driving, stunts, and underage driving

Expresses concern over frequent road accidents; demands urgent implementation of strict traffic regulations

Srinagar: Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Friday urged authorities, particularly the traffic department, to implement stringent traffic rules to prevent the frequent road accidents caused by reckless driving, stunts by young bikers, and underage driving.

In his statement, Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari expressed deep concern over recent accidents involving reckless driving on highways by underage boys, and called for strict action to prevent such incidents.

He said, “We frequently hear about young boys engaging in bike stunts and reckless driving, causing accidents or posing a threat to road safety. Unfortunately, reckless driving often results in tragic incidents, such as the recent accident on the highway in Lawaypora, where a class 8 student died and two of his friends sustained critical injuries after the speeding SUV they were in overturned. Similarly, the accident near Tengpora Bypass on Thursday claimed the lives of two young students. It is deeply painful to see the photographs of these young boys who lost their lives in these accidents. Their deaths have devastated their families, especially their parents, who will mourn this tragedy for a lifetime.”

“I humbly request the authorities to implement effective strategies to prevent frequent accidents. These should include strict action against those who violate traffic rules, a complete ban on underage driving, a widespread awareness campaign, and so on,” he added.
