Receiving information that there were contraband goods on the vehicle, the Nghe An provincial mobile market management team coordinated with the Dien Chau station traffic police, PC67, and Quynh Luu district police to intercept the passenger bus with license plate 51B 151.51 of the "Anh Khuyen" bus company traveling from Hanoi to Vinh. When arriving at the location, the working group requested the vehicle to stop and present documents for inspection of the goods. However, the driver did not cooperate and resisted, causing traffic congestion.

At 5:30 a.m., the driver pulled the car over to the side of the road but still did not allow the task force to check the goods. Photo by Xuan Bay.

The driver, named Hoang Van Loc (born in 1979), residing in Binh Minh commune, Tinh Gia district, Thanh Hoa, after presenting his papers, still parked the car in the middle of the lane and resolutely refused to leave the steering wheel, not allowing the working group to get in the car to check the goods, causing a traffic jam on National Highway 1A.

Traffic police had to arrange forces to direct traffic in one direction for 4 hours straight. Although the officers in the task force convinced the driver to pull the car to the side of the road and open the door for the task force to inspect, the driver constantly moved around in the car, made phone calls, and refused to open the door or get into the driver's seat.
