- The N-5 carries mixed traffic: tractor-trolleys, donkey carts, motorcycles and buses share the road with fast cars. Expect slow vehicles without lights after dark and keep your speed down through towns.
- Unlike a motorway, the N-5 often has no proper hard shoulder. If you break down, get as far off the road as you can, switch on hazards and place a warning triangle well behind the car.

Questions
How long is the N-5 between Attock Khurd and Nowshera?
About 36 km. Tell us roughly how far you are from either end, or read the nearest km marker.
Which direction should I say I'm travelling?
Say whether you're heading towards Torkham or towards Karachi. On a divided motorway we need the correct carriageway.
Can you fix the car here instead of towing it?
Often, yes: flat batteries, punctures and empty tanks are fixed at the roadside. Otherwise we recover it on a flatbed.
