About the N-5

  • 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.
  • Fog is common on the Punjab section in winter. Slow down, use low beams and avoid overtaking when you cannot see oncoming traffic.
  • In the monsoon, low-lying stretches can flood. Do not drive into water of unknown depth; water in the engine can cause serious damage.
