In recent days, social networks have spread a video recording the scene of a car going in the opposite direction and then blocking another car traveling in the right direction.
According to the content of the clip, the incident is said to have occurred at about 9 am on March 4 on Hoang Van Thu street, Sa Pa ward, Lao Cai province. At this time, a man driving a Hyundai Creta car with license plate 22A-240. 09 entered the opposite lane.
When encountering a car moving in the right direction, instead of giving way, this driver stopped the car in the middle of the road, blocking the front of the opposite vehicle. The situation caused the driver of the car going in the right direction to steer onto the sidewalk to avoid collision.
After the two cars stopped, the driver of the Hyundai Creta continued to argue back and forth with the person in the opposite car. This person claimed that he was blocked and loudly asked the driver of the car to drive in the right direction to avoid.
A few minutes later, the man got out of the car, turned off the engine and locked the door, then threw a challenge "please park all day". Despite the surrounding people's reminders, the driver still left, leaving the car standing in the middle of the road, obstructing traffic.
The entire diễn biến of the incident was recorded by passersby and posted on social networks.
After appearing, the video quickly attracted many comments. Many opinions expressed outrage, saying that the act of going against traffic and stopping vehicles across the road not only causes traffic obstruction but also poses a potential risk of unsafety for vehicles traveling.
On March 9, the leader of Road Traffic Police Team No. 1 (Traffic Police Department, Lao Cai Provincial Police) - the unit in charge of Sa Pa area - said that Sa Pa ward authorities have grasped the information about the incident and are coordinating to verify. Currently, functional agencies have not yet had specific results.
