| It is known that the reason for the traffic jam is that people thought that when Vinh City switched to social distancing according to Directive 15, they would be able to travel normally. Because many people did not have the necessary documents, they were forced to return. Photo: Quang An |

| According to Captain Nguyen Ich Hoa, an officer of the Traffic Police Team, Vinh City Police, on duty at Nghi Lien checkpoint, since early this morning, the number of vehicles arriving at this checkpoint has been very large, causing a prolonged traffic jam. Although there were 10 police officers, military officers, and youth union members at this checkpoint, they could not quickly resolve the situation. Therefore, in the morning, Vinh City Police had to add 2 more officers to be in charge of dividing lanes and traffic flows for vehicles to pass through, in order to resolve the congestion.
