30 tractor-trailers transporting ore violated traffic safety on National Highway 7
(Baonghean.vn) - With the viewpoint of "no forbidden zones, no exceptions", the special working group of the Provincial Police Traffic Police Department has patrolled and promptly handled violations on National Highway 7.
Implementing Plan No. 74/KH-CAT-PC08-PV01 dated February 28, 2023 of the Provincial Police on mobilizing forces to coordinate patrols, control, and handle violations of transporting overloaded or oversized goods, changing the size of the vehicle's body, not complying with road markings, driving on the wrong side of the road, lane, stopping and parking in violation of regulations, speeding, alcohol concentration, and having drugs in the body in Nghe An province.
The Traffic Police Department has organized and implemented synchronously on all routes and areas under its management. In particular, National Highway 7 and the roads connecting to National Highway 7 are identified as one of the key routes, with the goal of handling violations related to tractor-trailers transporting ore from Laos.
According to the officers of the Special Task Force of the Provincial Traffic Police Department, if in the past there was still a situation of tractor-trailers carrying ore from Laos being overloaded, now, along with the 24/7 patrol and control of the Traffic Police force, not to mention that right after passing through the Nam Can International Border Gate, the vehicle's load is weighed, so the violation of overloading no longer occurs.
However, in reality, tractor-trailers transporting ore from Laos still violate traffic rules such as stopping and parking illegally, not obeying road markings, speeding, etc. These are violations that can easily lead to traffic accidents. Therefore, the Department has determined that it is necessary to increase patrols and strictly handle them.
In just a short period from July 27 to August 10, the Special Patrol Team of the Provincial Traffic Police Department, in coordination with the Mobile Police force, discovered and handled more than 30 cases of violations of illegal parking, failure to comply with road markings, speeding, etc.
According to Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen Nam Hong - Deputy Head of the Traffic Police Department of the Provincial Police: Based on the plan of the Provincial Police, the Department has thoroughly instructed officers and soldiers of the teams, stations, and special patrol groups to strictly patrol and handle cases, with the viewpoint of "no forbidden zones, no exceptions". The goal is to reduce traffic accidents, and at the same time, improve and raise the awareness of law compliance of transport businesses and drivers.
