Lack of awareness and going the wrong way cause traffic conflicts. According to some people who often go through the Lang - Yen Lang intersection, since the traffic light from Lang to Nga Tu So at the above intersection has a countdown timer, traffic jams occur more often. Previously, at this location, vehicles could go straight continuously without having to stop at red lights.
