LAHORE: Singer and TV host Fakhre Alam survived a near-fatal accident on Thursday after “a reckless driver rammed into his car”.
Taking to Twitter, the singer wrote, “This milk truck from Chiniot without indication made a U-turn from the far out lane forcing our vehicle to take evasive measure missing the truck, hitting the divider and ending up on the other side.”
“The fact that the driver and I have walked away alive is nothing short of a miracle. These truck operators without proper training are allowed on our roads endangering all of us and our loved ones,” he added.

Alam further said, “I am grateful to Allah that I will once again get to see my children but there are many who have never returned home because of extremely poor road safety and dangerous drivers. Tonight I followed up with Islamabad Police to do whatever was possible legally to stop this driver.”
The singer also asked the public to report dangerous drivers. “Please wear a belt, it saved my life today and above all the law enforcement must not allow for such irresponsible people to drive on our roads,” he concluded.
