Trucks in Pakistan are changing, large 500BHP Japani trucks are now filling the roads. These pull 50ft to 80ft long trailers which are also highly decorated. Most of these trucks are owned by transport companies in Northern Baluchistan, like this truck, FATA, NWF or Swat. The decorations are primarily images of the scenery in these areas. One image they all share is that of the Khyber pass as this is where these trucks will be heading; the drivers of these trucks take risks that most people could not comprehend, they do not do this through choice but necessity. If they don't drive these trucks they will not be able to feed their families; once sheep and goat farmers of the North, their way of life has been devastated by earthquakes in 2005, floods 2010 and an on going war; there is no other way to survive, unless, like thousands of others, they flee the villages to find work in the southern cities. Some of these drivers will never return once through the Khyber pass.
