Headline: Citizens Respond to Rising Traffic Accidents in Karachi by Setting 5 Tankers on Fire
Karachi – In a dramatic reaction to the increasing number of traffic accidents in Karachi, angry citizens set five tankers on fire. This incident occurred in response to a tragic accident in which two motorcyclists were killed after being hit by a speeding tanker in the Gulshan-e-Maymar area.
The accident sparked outrage among locals, who gathered at the scene and blocked the road in protest. The crowd, fueled by frustration over recurring traffic mishaps involving heavy vehicles, took matters into their own hands and torched five tankers parked nearby. Eyewitnesses reported that the tankers were completely engulfed in flames, and the fire created chaos in the surrounding area.
Rescue teams and fire brigades rushed to the site and managed to bring the fire under control after considerable effort. Fortunately, no one was injured in the blaze. Law enforcement agencies also arrived to disperse the crowd and restore order.
Local residents complain that reckless driving by tanker drivers is a regular issue and that authorities have failed to take meaningful action. They demanded stricter traffic control and accountability for tanker operators.
Authorities have launched an investigation into both the accident and the subsequent arson. Legal action is expected against those involved in setting the vehicles on fire.
