In front of the flea market in Cua Nam ward (Vinh city), traffic safety violations are frequent. Every afternoon, in front of the market entrance, where it intersects with National Highway 46, there is often a bustle of buyers and sellers, causing difficulties for people and vehicles passing by.

In Thanh Chuong district, the situation of holding markets right on the roadside is quite common. Right in front of Don market (Dung town), at a rather dangerous bend of National Highway 46, people still hold markets on the roadside. Photo: Huy Thu |

At Rang Market in Thanh Hung Commune (Thanh Chuong), nearly half of the market-goers gather on the street. Here, 300-400m of National Highway 46 has been completely turned into a market. Crowds of buyers and sellers bustle in the middle of the street. Photo: Huy Thu |

At peak times, the market is crowded, the road in front of the market is partially congested. Photo: Huy Thu |

Giang Market in Thanh Tien Commune (Thanh Chuong) is a "typical" example of traffic safety violations. About 600 - 700 m of road in front of the market gate has been turned into a market. Driving on National Highway 46, it feels like walking in the middle of a market. Here, the roadway and sidewalks have been completely occupied by market-goers, leaving no way for people and vehicles to pass. Photo: Huy Thu |

In front of the New Market gate in Thuan Son Commune (Do Luong) is also a hot spot for traffic safety violations. Here, people often gather to buy and sell in the middle of the street. Observations show that when local authorities "took action" during the peak month of action, traffic safety violations in front of markets along National Highway 46 had positive changes, but soon after, they quickly recurred. The situation of "pulling" markets onto the street in recent times is causing frustration for traffic participants. Photo: Huy Thu |
