Anh Tuan, owner of a construction material shop on Le Van Luong Street, recently purchased a Thaco Towner 990kg truck to facilitate goods transportation. Excited about his new vehicle, he immediately accepted a delivery of bricks to a customer in Ha Dong District. Eager to deliver quickly, he overloaded the truck with a few dozen extra bricks. On Nguyen Trai Street, passing through Thanh Xuan District, he was pulled over by authorities and heavily fined for exceeding the weight limit. Facing a fine, vehicle impoundment, and a delayed delivery, Tuan was filled with regret.
Tuan’s story serves as a lesson for truck and pickup truck owners about the importance of strictly adhering to weight regulations. What are the penalties for overloading in Vietnam? Let’s explore the details in this article from Xe Tai Ha Noi.
According to Decree 100/2019/ND-CP, fines for overloading are categorized into different levels based on the percentage of excess weight:
Level 1: Overloading from 10% to under 20%: Fines range from 8,000,000 to 10,000,000 VND for individuals and from 16,000,000 to 20,000,000 VND for organizations.
