How do road conditions in different Pakistani cities affect Toyota Camry’s drivability and clearance problems?

Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad have better-maintained roads, but still have high speed breakers.
Cities like Quetta, Peshawar, and rural areas have potholes and rough patches that affect low-clearance cars.
How should Camry drivers adjust their driving styles in different cities?

City-Specific Road Conditions:

Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad: These cities have relatively well-maintained roads, but there are still high speed breakers that can cause scraping, especially in residential areas o r near markets. The Camry’s clearance is still insufficient for some of these speed bumps, particularly the irregularly built ones.
Quetta, Peshawar, Rural Areas: Cities like Quetta and Peshawar, and rural areas in general, have poor road infrastructure with deep potholes, unpaved roads, and rough patches. This exacerbates the clearance issue, making low-clearance cars like the Camry more vulnerable to underbody damage.

Driving Adjustments for Different Cities:

In cities like Karachi o r Islamabad, where roads are relatively well-maintained but high speed bumps exist, drivers should approach speed bumps slowly, at an angle, and avoid sudden braking to prevent scraping.
In cities like Peshawar and Quetta, where roads are rougher, drivers should avoid driving at high speeds on unpaved o r damaged roads. It may be worth driving on alternative routes that are better maintained.
