After Lahore, another heart wrenching incident in Karachi has engulfed human lives while injuring several. Again, a speeding SUV, driven by a woman, lost the control near Karsaz, rammed over a motorcycle and other vehicles claiming the life of two leaving 4 injured.
The incident occurred on the service road when the SUV collided with a motorcycle, killing a father and his daughter on the spot. Another person was injured and is currently receiving medical treatment. Other media reports revealed that third victim passed away in hospital.
The Details
Witnesses reported that the SUV overturned, and a large crowd gathered at the scene, expressing their anger towards the driver. Police and Rangers were forced to intervene to control the crowd and ensure the safety of the accused.
The woman driver, Natasha, a close relative of a prominent industrialist, was apprehended by law enforcement and is currently being investigated. Authorities have further disclosed that the vehicle involved in the incident is registered under the name of a private corporation.
It has been revealed that she was in possession of a foreign driving license. The exact circumstances leading to the accident are still under investigation. Initial media reports suggested that alcohol may have been a contributing factor but after the medical tests, these claims have been rubbished.
This tragic incident highlights the ongoing problem of reckless driving in the country. Despite numerous efforts to raise awareness and enforce stricter laws, such accidents continue to occur, claiming innocent lives.
Earlier in DHA Lahore, an underage driver collided his speeding car with a vehicle carrying 6-7 members of a family, claiming 6 lives.
The loss of two lives in the recent accident is a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of drunk driving. It is a call to action for all of us to be responsible road users and to refrain from driving under the influence of alcohol. By doing so, we can help to create safer roads for everyone.
Really need to be more careful with the heading. If a male driver does this, the heading is read “drunk driver”. When it’s a woman, it’s now “drunk woman driver”.
As leading brand for automobile information, there should be a moral duty as well. This heading serves only to capitalize on the anti-women driver stereotype.
This is shameful.
Publish after complete investigation is done
Let’s see whether she was drunk or not.Accidents happen all over the world.
This is tragic and unfortunate for father daughter duo the girl driving the car should have died instead of those poor souls as this is not the first time these type of illegal kids born out of extra marital affairs result of one night stands have destroyed families and deserves serious and severe punishment this has happened in lahore many times and as always corruption will rise and no justice will be done she will walk away free and enjoy taking this as just an accident I hope and pray someone from her family faces the same fate
Your concern about the headline is misplaced. The real issue here is that a drunk woman driver killed two innocent men on a quiet residential road, completely destroying both vehicles in the process. The headline accurately reflects the facts, and frankly, the focus should be on the lives lost and ensuring justice, not nitpicking over wording. It’s crucial to prioritize the victims and the severity of this tragedy rather than getting distracted by irrelevant details.

How on earth could Toyota be blamed if the driver misbehaves? They sell vehicles and are only responsible for technical faults in them.
Besides, I saw this bike rider, he was driving – oblivious to surroundings – right in the middle of the service road. Why? He should have been driving on one side. After all, the rules for bike riders, rickshaws, pedestrians, animal pulled carts, and other slow-going objects (including cars) are clear; drive / walk on one side of the road.
PS A very balanced and professional reporting author. Thank you.

You freaking moron, if your mother and sister + father have been died in this incident, would you still be giving the same comments? The main concern is that woman took 3 innocent lives but all you see is that author mentioned “Woman” in the title.
