Cars stopping in the middle of the road and citizens' responsibility

Lê Thanh Phong |

Seeing a car stop in the middle of the road at midnight, people filmed a clip and sent it to the traffic police to reflect.

Through verification, the traffic police invited the driver to work and made a record of the fine.

From this incident, it is clearer to see the role and responsibility of each citizen in detecting and preventing violations.

The driver's act of stopping vehicles not in accordance with regulations has caused public outrage because of the potential risk of accidents, especially at night, when visibility is limited, vehicles circulate at high speeds.

The fact that the Fanpage of the Traffic Police Department (Ministry of Public Security) posted a clip and received feedback through the VNeTraffic application shows that the coordination mechanism between people and functional forces is becoming increasingly clear and effective.

The Road Traffic Law clearly stipulates that stopping and parking must be in the permitted places, not obstructing traffic, and not causing danger to people and other vehicles.

Stopping cars in the middle of the road, even for a short time, can become an unexpected "obstacle", leading to collisions and chain collisions. Therefore, strictly handling these cases is not only about applying sanctions, but also a measure to prevent risks for society.

What is noteworthy in the incident is the proactive attitude of the people. Instead of being indifferent or just being upset in silence, people recorded and sent information and evidence to functional agencies through official channels.

This is a specific manifestation of civic responsibility in the rule-of-law society, detecting violations, reflecting them in the right place and in the right way, contributing to supporting law enforcement forces.

In the current context, when most people have smartphones, recording traffic violations such as illegal stopping and parking, swerving, swerving, reckless overtaking, speeding... becomes more convenient.

Many cases on national highways and expressways have been detected and handled promptly thanks to clips provided by people. These images not only help punish violators, but also contribute to forming a sense of self-discipline in complying with traffic laws.

However, citizens' responsibility does not stop at filming clips. More importantly, it is the attitude of objectivity, properness, recording truthfully, not cutting and pasting, not inciting, not taking advantage of social networks to attack individuals.

Reflecting through official channels such as VNeTraffic helps ensure that information is processed according to the correct process, avoiding misunderstandings or unnecessary consequences.

When people accompany traffic police, traffic order and safety are not only based on patrols and controls, but are strengthened from community awareness.

Each action of recording and reflecting violations correctly is a brick contributing to building traffic culture, safety, and discipline.
