At km 76 passing through Tuong Son commune, Anh Son, the convex mirror was broken and deformed, leaving only the iron frame. Mr. Vi Hung - a driver on the Vinh - Ky Son route said: Every time going up or down this dangerous curve, the view is blocked, wanting to look into the convex mirror to observe the front but cannot do so because the mirror is broken. Many times, two vehicles going in opposite directions, if not observing in time, are likely to crash into each other.

Functional sectors, road management units, traffic inspectors, police and local authorities need to regularly patrol, detect vandals to strictly handle them, and quickly take measures to fix damaged mirrors to ensure safety for traffic participants./.
