Controversy over driver who casually parked and walked over street vendor on sidewalk

The incident was accounted for.NKQrecorded on the morning of February 22 in Sapa town, Lao Cai in a status: "Tourists were walking around there, but the uncle kept going in and honking loudly. There was no place to step down, so he just walked like that."

Accordingly, a man driving a 16-seat car stopped and parked right in front of a row of street vendors sitting on the sidewalk. This person then opened the car door, stepped over the goods displayed on the ground to go up the stairs above.

The photos, after being shared on social media, received attention from the community with many mixed comments. Some sympathized, saying that street vendors were encroaching on the sidewalk, affecting people's walking paths, so this man acted like that. AccountHanh NguyenComment: "In my opinion, the seller was wrong first, he was sloppy on the sidewalk where people were walking, people who didn't have a path would walk like that". "First blame yourself, then blame others, is that a place for doing business?", FacebookerXuan Huyspeak.

However, many people objected to the driver's actions. Facebook usersMinh Transaid: "Even if you sell on the street or sidewalk, it's still life, don't step on other people's rice bowls like that". "If people display their goods in the wrong place, do you have the right to step on their goods? Moreover, the government will take care of the illegal sidewalk business. The other guy is clearly an educated person, but he parked his car wrongly and trampled on people's goods, there's really nothing more to say", FacebookerBold Thanhfrustrated

"I think both sides are wrong. The law stipulates that goods must be sold in the right place and also that cars must be parked in the right place. But here, one side puts up goods where people step on them, the other side steps on what people are selling, neither side is fair," another account wrote.
