      <title>Speeding trailer hangs off bridge in Karachi after crash</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330416300/speeding-trailer-hangs-off-bridge-in-karachi-after-crash</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A speeding trailer lost control, crashed into the safety railing, and hung precariously off the ICI Bridge in Karachi on the night between Sunday and Monday.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, there were no casualties despite the serious risk of the trailer falling.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Traffic police reported that the accident caused major disruptions to vehicle flow on the bridge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rescue teams and traffic officers promptly arrived at the scene, secured the area, and redirected traffic to alternative routes.&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Authorities brought in heavy machinery and used a crane to pull the trailer back onto the bridge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After several hours, the rescue team removed the trailer and restored traffic.&lt;/p&gt;
