National traffic police in Vietnam reported nearly 19,000 traffic violations nationwide on the third day of the September 2nd holiday. A significant portion of these offenses, exceeding 2,500 cases, involved drivers operating vehicles under the influence of alcohol. The crackdown on drunk driving is part of a larger effort to ensure road safety during the extended national holiday. Authorities consistently increase patrols and enforcement during peak travel periods like this one. These figures highlight ongoing concerns about road safety and adherence to traffic regulations within the country. The number of violations underscores the prevalence of unsafe driving behaviors despite ongoing public awareness campaigns. Continued enforcement is expected for the remainder of the holiday period.
