Reflecting to the iHanoi Capital Citizen Application, a resident said that he has repeatedly recorded the situation of vehicles, especially cars, going in the opposite direction from alley 289A Khuat Duy Tien street to Thang Long Number One urban area, causing obstruction and potential safety risks for vehicles moving in the correct direction.
People cited the case of a car with license plate 30K-328. ** in the attached image, and at the same time requested functional forces to inspect and strictly handle it for deterrence.
Receiving feedback, Road Traffic Police Team No. 7 (Traffic Police Department, Hanoi City Police) said that the inspection and handling of acts of driving vehicles in the opposite direction is one of the key and consistent tasks, which the unit directs to strictly implement.
According to statistics, in 2024, the Traffic Police force of Hanoi City Police handled 10,589 cases of violations of entering prohibited roads and going against traffic.
However, violations still occur due to the limited awareness of law compliance of a part of traffic participants.
Many cases intentionally go against traffic to shorten the distance, save time, cause public outrage and pose a risk of congestion and traffic accidents, especially during peak hours or when functional forces are absent.
Immediately after receiving information, implementing the direction of the Traffic Police Department Command, Road Traffic Police Team No. 7 strengthened the deployment of forces, focusing on inspecting and handling violations of going against traffic in the Khuat Duy Tien street area (section in front of Thang Long Number One building, Thanh Xuan district, Hanoi) according to the reflected content.
In addition, the unit has sent officials to coordinate with the local Ward Police to work with the Management Board of Thang Long Number One building to soon propose solutions to overcome and stop the situation of vehicles going against traffic in this area.
In the coming time, Road Traffic Police Team No. 7 said that it will continue to maintain regular forces in the area, strengthen inspection and strictly handle cases of intentional violations, contributing to ensuring traffic order and safety in the area.
