According to Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen Nam Hong - Deputy Head of the Traffic Police Department (Nghe An Police): After Tet, when people return to work, go to festivals, visit and travel, etc., the demand for traveling by passenger vans increases. Therefore, with the goal of reducing traffic accidents in general and accidents related to passenger vans in particular, along with requiring bus operators to sign a commitment and strictly comply with the provisions of the law, the department has directed teams and stations, along with that, coordinating with local police to continue to inspect and strictly handle violations related to passenger vans, such as carrying more people than the prescribed number, speeding violations, etc.

Accordingly, 3,649 violations were recorded, including 449 passenger vehicles.

Along with that, to effectively implement the work of ensuring traffic safety in 2023 with the theme "Respecting the law to build a traffic culture", the traffic police force persistently implements propaganda measures, thereby raising awareness of self-compliance with the law and building a safe traffic culture for the people. At the same time, continue to mobilize and arrange forces, means, thoroughly use means, technical equipment to organize patrols, control, detect, and strictly handle violations that are the direct causes of traffic accidents, especially violations of alcohol concentration and speeding when driving road vehicles.
