    The traffic flow had not yet passed Lang - Yen Lang intersection when the green light had already clashed with the traffic flow in the other direction. This is also the reason why this intersection is often congested.

    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.
