Concerned over frequent accidents, residents of Paro are urging authorities to install proper safety infrastructure along the four-kilometre highway stretch from the district court to Lamgong. The highway, connecting Paro town to Drugyel, caters to a high volume of traffic, including office-goers, students, taxis, buses, tourists and cattle. These included 17 single-vehicle accidents, 17 two-vehicle collisions, 16 vehicle-animal collisions, 9 hit-and-run cases, and 3 pedestrian accidents. Drivers say they are compelled to use low-beam headlights to avoid blinding oncoming traffic, which results in poor visibility. With no concrete decision yet on installing safety infrastructure, police urge drivers to remain cautious, citing speeding, drunk driving, and unlicensed driving as major causes of accidents on the stretch.
