Wake-up call on road safety

For more than 30 families, the date September 26th will forever be etched in their minds as the parents' worst nightmare came true. A bus full of young students and a few faculty members from a private school in Faisalabad catapulted out of control when its brakes failed. The crash, which happened at the Kallar Kahar salt mines on M2 motorway, took the lives of at least 37 people, including more than 30 children, teachers, the vice principal, the bus driver and the conductor.
