At least 20 people were killed and 30 others injured in a bus overturning incident that occurred on the morning of May 29 in Washuk district, Balochistan province, southwestern Pakistan.

DawnNewsTV reported that the bus was travelling from Turbat to Quetta when it suddenly overturned and fell into a ditch. The initial cause was determined to be excessive speed.

The bodies of the dead and injured were taken to Basima Civil Hospital. Among the dead were women and children.

Bad roads, lack of safety measures and reckless driving are the main causes of serious traffic accidents in Pakistan.

In addition, the situation of overloaded passenger vehicles and failure to comply with traffic safety regulations also causes the number of deaths in accidents to increase.
