Disobeying Traffic Signs: Dire Consequences

Road Safety Under Threat

Disregarding traffic signs, even minor ones, can lead to tragic accidents. For heavy trucks, ignoring speed limits, no-turn signs, or no-parking signs can have devastating consequences.

Imagine a fully loaded truck from Thaco Truong Loc dealership on Nguyen Van Linh Street, Hanoi, ignoring a no-turn sign and colliding with a motorcycle. The outcome could be catastrophic.

Legal Risks

Besides the risk of accidents, traffic sign violations can result in severe penalties: fines, license suspension, or even criminal charges for serious consequences.

“Many truck drivers mistakenly believe that driving carefully is enough. But the law is the law. Disobeying traffic signs is a violation and carries legal consequences,” shared Mr. Nguyen Van A, an expert at the Institute of Transport Research.

Negative Societal Impact

Disobeying traffic signs not only affects individuals but also negatively impacts society, contributing to traffic congestion, economic losses, and tarnishing Vietnam’s traffic image.
