SUKKUR: Sukkur’s busy Bandar Road once again turned into a dangerous scene after youths allegedly performing one-wheeling motorcycle stunts endangered both themselves and the public. During the incident, two young men were seriously injured in an accident, raising fresh concerns among residents about road safety.
According to local sources, the trend of one-wheeling is increasing, with teenagers and young riders performing risky motorcycle stunts on public roads. The practice not only puts their own lives at risk but also poses a serious threat to pedestrians and other motorists.
Residents say traffic law violations, including one-wheeling, speeding, and reckless driving, have become increasingly common in Sukkur. They argue that the lack of consistent enforcement has encouraged young riders to ignore traffic regulations.
Members of the public questioned why the police and relevant authorities often appear to act only after accidents occur. They asked whether preventive measures could be taken before such dangerous incidents result in more serious tragedies.
Some residents alleged that inadequate road monitoring allows individuals engaged in one-wheeling to ride without fear of enforcement, with police action frequently following accidents rather than preventing them.
Parents also expressed concern, warning that a few moments of thrill-seeking could leave families with lifelong grief. They urged the authorities to launch a sustained crackdown on one-wheeling, increase inspections of motorcycle riders, and take strict legal action against those found violating traffic laws.
The incident has renewed calls for stronger traffic enforcement and proactive measures to improve road safety and prevent further accidents on Sukkur’s roads.
