The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government has approved a new law for passenger and freight vehicles traveling long distances.
Under the legislation, buses, trucks, and trailers covering 365 kilometers or more will now be required to have two drivers on board.
According to officials, the move aims to reduce road accidents, prevent driver fatigue, and ensure passenger safety.
The rule will apply to vehicles traveling from Peshawar to major cities, including Lahore, Karachi, and Quetta. Violators will face fines ranging between Rs5,000 and Rs10,000.
The provincial traffic police and other concerned departments have been instructed to enforce the law strictly.
