On February 2nd, the Facebook page of the Traffic Police Department (CSGT) of the Ministry of Public Security informed about a vehicle stopping and parking in violation of regulations in Cao Bang province.
Information reflected from people through the hotline of the Director of the Traffic Police Department. After that, the Cao Bang Provincial Traffic Police Department urgently intervened to verify and clarify the incident in accordance with regulations.
Through verification, the Traffic Police Department determined that the car owner was an agency in Cao Bang province and invited driver H.Q.A (23 years old, residing in Nung Tri Cao ward, Cao Bang) to the headquarters to work.
Driver H.Q.A admitted to driving car 11A-008.XX (green background, white letters) with illegal parking violations according to the content reflected by the people; Consciently complying, agreeing to be handled according to the provisions of law.
The Traffic Police Department of Cao Bang Provincial Police has made a record of administrative violation for the act of: Parking in places with no-stopping and no-parking signs. Based on point e, clause 3, Article 6, Decree No. 168/2024/ND-CP of the Government, the penalty level is 900,000 VND.
Regarding the license plate with numbers covered in mud on the license plate, the driver said that he had just taken agency officials on a long, bad, and muddy road for work.
Based on the driver's testimony and actual verification and at the points of departure and arrival, the traffic police force has reminded drivers to regularly clean license plates, ensuring clarity and compliance with regulations when participating in traffic (the motto: the car may be dirty, but the license plate must be clean) and not to impose fines due to force majeure situations.
The case of mud covering the number and digits on the license plate after verification shows that the vehicle just carried officials on business trips and did not have time to clean the license plate (unlike letting the license plate be covered with mud for a long time, this is a force majeure case that is not penalized. The Fanpage of the Traffic Police Department has posted a guide on this matter).
If there are still images or clips in the following days or the time after the vehicle stops and parks but still leaves the license plate covered, then there will be a basis to establish the violation of attaching a license plate covered with letters and numbers.
The Traffic Police Department recommends that traffic participants strictly comply with regulations on stopping and parking and regulations on license plates, contributing to ensuring traffic order and safety.
