Instructions for disseminating laws, skills, and culture of safe traffic participation to union members and workers:
- Inform union members and workers regularly about traffic congestion, traffic accidents, and information supporting traffic order and safety during the National Day holiday on social networking sites, reputable electronic information sites; official information sites of news agencies, newspapers,
- Guide union members and workers to practice cultural behavior, not to jostle or push, to maintain public hygiene when participating in traffic; not to speed or recklessly overtake, causing congestion and insecurity, especially on highways, traffic hotspots, and roads in industrial parks.
- Disseminate short, easy-to-remember, easy-to-understand messages about the Traffic Safety Law to union members and workers such as "If you drink alcohol or beer - do not drive", "Do not use the phone while driving", "Wear a standard helmet when riding a motorbike, scooter, or electric bicycle", "Wear a seat belt when riding a car", "Obey speed regulations".
