Breaking News: Bahria Accident: MAJID's Supra hits at HPR quatermile

[vickytulla]

When you RACE, its the racing Event Management DUTY to provide the Protective Measures to the invited spectator , families , the racing Driver...
racing CARS are meant to lose control on RACE TRACKS it very well known fact. just you tube yourself and see how many cars fail on treack every day and now one get hurts because the managemnt is good out there...

Regardless of whats been said. there was a loss of human life and it cannot be justified .. NO one cares of the event was legal or illegal ... It is the responsibility of the driver to make sure that car goes in a straight line and running away after the accident is a crime and there is no excuse for that Who ever was the driver of the car should be arrested and there should be a murder trial against him .. I am quiet sure the driver will be pled guilty and probably would be send behind the bars for good

its not a judgement its a fact

........... Speed kills and human lives comes at a price of your own life so words wont do anything good .....

[vickytulla]

Exactly he was Racing and RAcing means accident ....

Mara mere ko ye samij nahi aata police Majid ko q pakare ga ?? us ne khud tu nahi mara nah, accident tu game a part hota ha

accidents tu F1 mei bhi hote hain, i think its not a driver fault, he was there for racing right,

"It is the responsibility of the driver to make sure that car goes in a straight line" is it a Car or a Train on a track ?? Race car accidents r too common worldwide open ur eyes BABY

[alamzaib]

it all bowls down to whether this race was legal or illegal. if proper documentation exists for race permission than driver is safe and the race management will be held responsible.
otherwise this majid guy is screwed.

[vickytulla]

I find it funny people pointing the driver ?? he was racing don't you hear that ?? he was told that it was a race track and every medical aid is ready there in any worst case. THE PTCL and Bharia Town were the Managers there who guaranteed that all the drivers that they can drive as fast as they can management have made the Track secure, but in real the road was not safe, during race people were running and crossing the road.. very poor management, which finally leaded the event to such a catastrophe :(..

[ronin]

this all happened as a result of the managements negligence. Racing is not a crime...but racing without proper safety measures is a crime.

what so ever the case may be...its an SOP all over the world, where ever drag races take place...they take place between concrete barriers...there are always barriers on both sides of the track... accidents are inevitable in races but safety measures are always in place.

the management should be held responsible cause promoting motor sports and at the same time making big buks at the cost of human life is not at all acceptable...

[omaqsood]

Very sad incident indeed...

Yesterday, when I went back home I learned from my father that Mr. Babar Ali the bank manager of Askari Bank DHA and his son passed away and his daughter was seriously injured. Another young man living in DHA (Son of a Col Sb) also passed away. My father attended the Namaz-e-Janaza and his words were that he has seldom seen such a huge gathering. Also my father was full of praise for Mr. Babar Ali that he was a very lively person and was very well liked by even casual acquaintances. He also lived in DHA Phase 1.

Once again I would reiterate that any such racing event should only be held on a purpose built facility...

Agree 100%

NAPOLEON SAID

"THE WORLD SUFFERS A LOT. NOT BECAUSE OF THE VIOLENCE OF BAD PEOPLE, BUT BECAUSE OF THE SILENCE OF GOOD PEOPLE!"

WHEN TIME WILL COME THAT OUR NATION WILL UNITE AND ATLEAST WILL KNOW WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS WRONG AND MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL IS TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO SAY THE WRONG "WRONG" AND THE GOOD "GOOD". EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT BAHRIA TOWN AND THE STORY OF MALIK RIAZ. BUT WE ALL ARE SILENT.

IN THE RECENT PAST MALIK RIAZ REQUESTED "PAKISTANI CREAM" TO COME FORWARD AND DONATE GENEROUSLY FOR FLOOD VICTIMS HE HIMSELF announced the donation of 75% of all his assets for the relief and rehabilitation of flood victims BUT...... VERY GOOD TO INFORM YOU ALL THAT NOBODY BECAME VICTIM OF HIS EVIL WEB.

PLEASE OPEN YOUR EYES AND EARS AND ATLEAST CONDEMN THIS INCIDENT SO THAT PPL SHOULD KNOW THAT WE ARE NOT SILENT AND SUCH INCIDENT MUST NOT HAPPEN IN FUTURE.

[maaddyy]

what makes me laugh is, regardless of how everything was managed, if the accident wouldnt have happened, the exact people, each and everyone of them who are blaming the organizers in this case, would be praising and acknowledging the organizers for organizing such a "safe, awesome, and well planned event"

very disgusting to see how jealousy, hypocracy, and idiocracy runs through every inch of the people in this country.

this was by far the best event ever arranged... all of us remember what happened in TDCP events... even police could not control the crowd... however after such an accident, the first question that any one will ask is were there proper safety procedures... and organizers are the one to answer that... as far as "safe, awesome and well planned" is concerned, it was awesome and well planned... but did it turn out to be safe, a big NO... so don't sound like people are criticizing your event because they are jealous... two thumbs up to you for it... but it lacked appropriate safety measures and people lost their lives... i know when someone says proper safety procedures, its like easier said then done... but the bottom line is that responsibility lies with management and you cannot deny that by simply saying people are jealous...

[SpeedDemon]

If this had happened to my car when I was racing, my conscience would probably have killed me!!!

I can only imagine the situation the driver of the car must be going through. He came there to race, not to kill innocent people.

Same goes for the spectators, they came there to enjoy watching a race, not to give up their lives.

Ultimately, we must have faith in our Creator for there are events in our lives that may not seem to have a purpose or reason. But Allah knows best...

Again, being member of this massive motor enthusiast community, I suggest we think and act responsibly in all future situations for our own good and the greater good of society. This will only benefit us and keep us safe and also allow us to enjoy activities that are intended to be fun and harmless for everyone.

My sincere condolences and prayers for the families who have lost their loved ones. My prayers for Majid; May Allah give him the strength and courage to deal with this tragic event and do the right thing. May Allah forgive him if he were at any fault. Ameen!

We are PakWheelers, we are motor enthusiasts not murderers and careless people! We openly discourage illegal racing and acts of stupidity. There have been a number of instances where our loved ones have lost their lives in tragic road events. We learn and InshAllah we improve over time.

I feel that organized racing is still the best way of enjoying this sport. We must continue and push for better organization from now on.

In case there are any future events of this kind, I request all drivers, spectators and organizers to be as prepared as possible and always keep SAFETY FIRST.

Thank you.

Off-Road Racing Accident Kills 8 - ABC News

please read this story, as its very similar to this unfortunate event. and remember that this can happen to anyone anywhere in the world.

for those of you who think its the drivers fault... think again, if you were actually in his situation you would be racing as well. unfortunately most of you can't afford it and say that everyone who has money got it through illegal means and they don't care about it.

even if he got the money through illegal means he wouldn't want to ruin such a good car im sure all of you are car fans and none of you would even want to ruin your little altos let alone a supra that you spent so many years modifying and racing.

so please grow a brain and stop hating.

thanks. also put your children in schools where they can get a good education and become open minded individuals rather than bigots like most of the population.

be safe and try to keep others safe too.

This is very sad, Allah victims ko janat qabool kare.

First of all, as tragic it is the event was to promote motor sports in PK. Accidents do happen, car getting out of control can happen to any one. events organized with city government permission or not(what I read from several sources it was not). Youths lifes were lost. We should save our judgements until the actual facts surfaces.

IDK what was the status on the guys FB page, it could be condolences to victims or what not. My uncle died recently and I posted on my FB to inform other family and friends as it is fastest way of personal info on the net now.

If that pic indeed showed majid, then I saw a similar guy wearing a black jacket helping the rescue workers placing bodies in the ambulance in a vid on youtube. You can searh the vid because I don't want to post it in here due to regulations that I support strongly. Usually mods here on power trips from my personal experience but this action was necessary.

Secondly society has come to a point where people are more into entertainment then actually helping or even checking pulses on the victims. Instead they were making movies. I'm not specifically talking about PK, it happens every where. For example all the protests in US about a black kid brutally abused by police or wrongfully death, most of the Negros are their for entertainment burning cars and riot etc etc.

My heart goes out to victims and there families. The lack of medical care on the scene was horrific. I'm a certified CPR tech by EMSA in the US. It takes and hr to learn how to CPR and what to do in case of serious injury. No one even tried even though some people were shouting the kids were dead and they were making maovies.

CPR is something you guys should learn or medical training that don't require a medical degree. Just recently a friend of mine visiting my house with his family. He gave his 2 yr old son a candy. later he choked on it and couldn't breath. My 9 yr old boy did what he needed to do in the scenerio. He did it because he learned it in his school on what to do and how to perform the right actions in case of emergency.

Something you guys should look into seriously. There are different ways to perform actions on a choking person according to their ages. Todlers are different then adults and kids.

I think we should stop these opinion oriented discussions because there is no end to it. This topic is in the section "Prayers and Condolences" and we should do the same.
