Previously, at around 10:00 p.m. on August 29, while on duty at Km1792+500, National Highway 1A, the patrol team controlled by Suoi Tre Traffic Police Station (Traffic Police Department of Dong Nai Provincial Police) discovered a passenger bus crowded with passengers.
At the time of inspection, the 24-seat passenger car with license plate 50H-676.xx driven by driver D.T.C (35 years old, residing in Gia Lai province) was carrying 46 passengers; exceeding the permitted limit by double.
The patrol team recorded the violation of driver C and proceeded to draw up a record of the fine according to the provisions of law.
According to the authorities, congestion of passengers exceeding the prescribed number of seats not only seriously violates regulations on road traffic safety, but also poses many potential risks of accidents, especially when vehicles travel on crowded national highways. In case of an incident, the consequences will be very unpredictable.
