Spotted at blue area, just outside BankAl- Islami.
Every shopping area and road in Islamabad is crutinzed by a car lifter (exact term, anyone?) these days &#8230; so if you care to double park, think again =))

<p>After living in Islamabad for a good while now, the one thing that really irks me is why everyone insists on driving around at break-neck speed and taking dodgy manouveres when there is,in my humble view, no reason to do it&#8230;.<br />
Let me single out my number one hated motorist &#8211; the Toyota Corolla driver.  Firstly, why did Toyota put such a huge set of headlights in this car? i think the sole purpose was for corolla drivers to creep up and flash other unsuspecting motorists in a strobe-light fashion just when there is a queue of cars in front of them and nowhere to move.</p>
<p>Secondly, why have so many people found it aesthetically pleasing to garnish their cars with loads of fake chrome.. it looks unbelievably tacky and adds no beauty to the factory standard&#8230; i guess some Corolla drivers have got too much spare Rupees to blow on things like that.</p>
<p>All in all, i have seen too many cars involved in accidents and 8/10 times its a corolla parked on the side looking like the one in the picture.  I&#8217;m all for everyone having a car, but with the sudden burst of cars on our roads in the twin cities, we need better educated drivers who actually pass a test (not the go-cart test that the Islamabad Traffic Police have setup) but a proper test to weed out bad drivers.</p>
