Motorcycle assemblers view Karachi as the biggest market in the province for the locally-manufactured motorbikes. Furthermore, the lack of a stable public transport system in Karachi has largely impacted the middle-class and hence for them, the motorbike is the silver lining. According to reports, about 339 new motorbikes were being registered in Karachi ten every day, ten years ago. Karachi lacks public transport, a well-devised traffic management system and road infrastructure. Apart from that, the absence of road sense in motorcyclists is further contributing to the traffic woes.
