TPO - Running red lights, driving in the wrong direction, not wearing helmets... are images that are not difficult to see of some technology motorbike taxi drivers lacking awareness on the streets of Hanoi recently...

On many streets of Hanoi, it is not difficult to see technology motorbike taxi drivers participating in traffic like "circus performers". In fact, traffic violations by these drivers are common, posing many potential risks to traffic safety, tarnishing the image of urban civilization.

According to the reporter, in recent days, on the central streets of Hanoi such as Nguyen Trai, Truong Chinh, Lang, Tay Son, Xa Dan... traffic violations by technology motorbike taxi drivers such as running red lights, going the wrong way, driving on the sidewalk... especially during rush hour are often seen.

A motorbike taxi driver wearing a Grab shirt drove the wrong way on Truong Chinh Street.

Two passenger drivers ran a red light at the intersection of Truong Chinh and Ton That Tung.

Vehicles lined up on the sidewalk of Lang Street.

The driver swerved, ran a red light, and cut across the lane of traffic on Xa Dan Street.

Instead of waiting for the red light for 27 seconds, the driver "risked his life" by violating traffic laws.

A motorbike taxi driver drove the wrong way despite the danger at the Nga Tu So area after turning the wrong way.

Despite the danger, many vehicles go the wrong way on Nguyen Trai Street. This situation happens frequently, especially during rush hour.

The driver swerved and cut across lanes to avoid having to go around at the So Intersection area.

Thousands of traffic violations by technology motorbike taxi drivers.

"After a while of using a technology-based motorbike taxi, I switched to using personal vehicles or public transport. I encountered many drivers who drove recklessly, drove in a hurry, and ran red lights, which was very dangerous. Many times I told the drivers to slow down, but they ignored me," said Ms. Nhung (Thanh Xuan, Hanoi).

The driver deliberately turned left despite the no-entry sign at the intersection of Truong Chinh and Le Trong Tan.

It is not difficult to see motorbike taxi drivers driving onto the railway tracks at the intersection of Le Duan and Giai Phong. Many vehicles even go in the opposite direction on this road.
