On October 30, Ms. Nguyen Thi May (character's name has been changed) residing in Kien Hung ward, Hanoi said that when reading a post on a forum about cars, one person shared about suddenly discovering himself in Hanoi but having the name of a Thai Nguyen license plate car on the VNeTraffic application, she was curious to check her account.
According to Ms. May, when entering the "Viao vehicle management" section, she suddenly discovered that she was wearing the names of 4 cars, including 2 cars and 2 motorbikes.
" Of the 4 cars on the app, only 1 7-seat car is mine. I sold and transferred the second car for nearly 2 years, and I don't know where the 2 motorbikes came from," she said.
This discovery made Ms. May worried about the risk of being fined or having her driving license points deducted if the vehicles not under her own violate.
"Now that AI cameras and cold-pressure cameras are equipped in many places, if those vehicles violate, will I be spread? I am about to have my driving license changed, so I am very worried if I get my points deducted or a wrong fine" - she shared.
Ms. May suggested that the authorities soon have instructions and support to standardize vehicle data, avoid confusion and cause trouble for vehicle owners.
Talking to Lao Dong, Ms. Vu Trang (Hoan Kiem, Hanoi) said that when opening the VNeTraffic application to check vehicle information, she was also surprised to discover something surprising, the first motorbike in her life still had her name.
More than 20 years ago, when she had just turned 18 and passed the driving test, her father gave her a graduation gift, a new, gold Yamaha Jupiter. In 2004, this car line was just launched and was considered a "symbol" of fashion.
Later, when she changed to many other car lines such as: AirBlade, Dylan, SH, this motorbike is still the most special souvenir for her. Although the car was lost for a long time, her father still kept the registration documents, the small piece of paper bearing her daughter's name as if leaving traces of a time.
"The car has been lost for 20 years, but my name is still in the system, and strangely, I have never violated anything" - she shared.
The story of Ms. May or Ms. Trang is just 2 of many people who have been discovered to have been fined for a car they have sold for a long time violating traffic laws; or are personally sponsoring a number of individuals when registering a car, but these cars are then sold to many different people.
On October 30, a representative of the Traffic Police Department (CSGT) said that in the case of a vehicle that has been sold for a long time but has not yet completed the name change procedure, the person whose name is on the registration must still be responsible for the vehicle.
A representative of the Traffic Police Department recommends that in cases where vehicles have been sold but have not completed the name change procedure, the vehicle owner should proactively go to the registration agency to declare, provide information about the vehicle or carry out procedures to revoke the license plate.
Also according to the representative of the Traffic Police Department, in cases where the vehicle has been purchased by many owners and cannot contact the person whose name is on the registration certificate, the user needs to carry out procedures to revoke the license plate and register the vehicle in his name.
