The Circular stipulates the registration symbols of domestic cars, motorbikes, and specialized motorbikes, as follows:

The Ministry of Public Security said that traffic violators can go to the traffic police department where people live or where they are found to be violating to resolve fines.
However, the Traffic Police Department informed that currently, people are gathering at the headquarters to handle violations of fines in large numbers, some places are overloaded and people have to wait a long time.
To create the most favorable conditions for people, without having to wait and travel far, the Traffic Police Department recommends:
People proactively look for fines. If there is a violation, people need to go to the traffic police department where they have permanent residence to handle it, should not go to the place where the violation was discovered in another locality, which is both overloading the authorities and requiring long trips.
The information that needs support is to be requested for people to send information about violations, the place of detection of violations, addresses and contact phone numbers to the mailbox of the Road and Railway Traffic Patrol and Control Guidance Department under the Traffic Police Department for specific instructions.

Accordingly, some violations of road traffic safety order have increased fines compared to before, such as drivers running red lights being fined 18-20 million VND (old level was 4-6 million VND).
For cars: Vehicle registration, certificate of technical safety inspection and environmental protection, driver's license of the violator, citizen identification card of the violator (photocopy 1 copy of each type of document).
The police recommend that people continue to raise awareness of voluntarily complying with traffic laws, for their own safety and that of others.
