Suzuki Alto ban on motorways from April 1? Rumors spread on social media

ISLAMABAD: Speculations are rife on social media about the alleged ban on the Suzuki Alto from motorways from April 1. According to the circulating claims, the popular hatchback will no longer be allowed on motorways due to safety concerns, and violators will be fined Rs. 5,000. But is there any truth to these reports?

Social media users speculate that the move is due to the Suzuki Alto’s lightweight body, lack of stability at high speeds and safety concerns in the event of an accident. Various posts claim that due to multiple incidents where Altos have lost control on highways, the authorities have decided to ban them from motorways altogether. Some even argue that the car’s gear system and build quality make it unsafe for long-distance travel.

What is the truth?

Despite the widespread chatter, no official notification has been issued by the National Highways and Motorway Police (NHMP) or any government authority regarding such a ban. So far, these claims remain unverified social media rumours.
