Deadliest Journeys - Pakistan
we all know that given dangerous conditions, trucking is a respected and honorable profession in Pakistan for many. People decorate their trucks, and treat their trucks as their second wife and second home. There is a whole culture and industry behind it.
I highly recommend watching this documentary. It takes place in & around the much-feared Lowari Pass (Death Tunnel) - which connects Dir with Chitral, in Khyber-Pukhtunkhwa Province.
These trucks don't have power-steering, retarders, air brakes, anti lock brakes, traction control, or any features (or convenience) found on modern trucks. Even then, they do what they love and do best.
Winding its way through the mountainous regions of Pakistan, the Lowari Pass has been dubbed the ‘death tunnel’ by local drivers who know the smallest error can be fatal.
