Damn... I just read this thread and this is aweful. My experience with escorts in that area (in 2006):
In Iran, none, except from Zahedan to the border.
In Pakistan, none from the border to Quetta. Tried to go via Bannu to Peshawar. Told to turn around by a gas seller and followed his advice. Got picked up in DG Khan and escorted to DI Khan, from there sans escort to Peshawar. That was the last escort I had.
I did stop at the tribal police posts, as they usually had a string or chain across the more deserted roads. Very friendly, sign the guestbook and away you go.
The military and police are more annoying. If it was one or two guys and I could see no sidearms or radio (hardly ever a vehicle), I'd just keep going.
Hope the KKH is open again .. That's the area to be, Karimabad, Marpin etc...
Have fun all.
