| In Nghi Duc commune (Vinh city), there is a black spot with high risk of accidents, which is the intersection between 35m road and Le Quy Don road in Xuan Hoa hamlet. Local people said: Since it was put into use in 2018, traffic accidents have frequently occurred. Photo: Nguyen Hai |

| One of the 10 black spots for traffic accidents in Hoang Mai Town is the intersection between Highway 36 (now National Highway 48D) at Km 13+700 and Quynh Vinh inter-commune road. According to the Traffic Safety Committee of Hoang Mai Town, since it was put into use, there have been dozens of accidents, killing at least 3 people. Photo: Nguyen Hai |

| And this is one of the three black spots in Nghia Son commune (Nghia Dan), the intersection between National Highway 15A and Ho Chi Minh trail. Mr. Tran Dinh Thang - Vice Chairman of Nghia Son Commune People's Committee said: During rush hour, this intersection has students passing through. At night, the intersection has no lights and Ho Chi Minh trail has no speed limit signs, so traffic accidents happen frequently. Photo: Nguyen Hai |

| Meanwhile, also in Nghia Son (Nghia Dan), because the Ho Chi Minh road is too high and the view from the residential road from the commune is blocked, even though there are traffic lights, accidents still often occur at this intersection.

| Another unsafe black spot is at the intersection of the market and the center of Nghia Son commune. At this location, due to the lack of traffic signals and limited visibility, many traffic accidents and collisions have occurred. Nghia Son commune People's Committee also proposed that the district and province clear the road, expand it, and install traffic lights to limit speed. Photo: Nguyen Hai |
According to Circular No. 26/TT/2012 of the Ministry of Transport, in early 2019, Nghe An conducted a survey, which found 21 black spots and 49 spots at risk of causing traffic accidents, along with proposed funding levels for remediation, sent to the National Traffic Safety Committee and the General Department of Roads for support in handling and remediation. Most recently, under the direction of the Permanent Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the National Traffic Safety Committee, localities with black spots need to urgently focus on surveying and supplementing black spot profiles in the direction of each spot/1 profile to submit funding arrangements for remediation immediately in 2020 to control and minimize traffic accidents in their areas.
