At noon on June 27, Mr. Dinh Minh Canh (a motorbike taxi driver, residing in Binh Chanh district) drove a motorbike towing a cart to collect nails and sharp objects slowly on National Highway 1 (Binh Chanh district, Ho Chi Minh City).

After a distance of about 15km, Mr. Canh checked the car and found about 200 grams of sharp objects, mainly brake cables (each piece is about 1cm long).

Mr. Canh shared that for many years now, he has been voluntarily collecting nails and sharp objects on the road with the hope that road users will be safe.

As students enter the high school graduation exam this year, he increases the frequency of pulling a cart to collect nails and sharp objects on the above road section.

Specifically, normally Mr. Canh pulls the nail suction cart 3-4 times a week, and on days when students take exams, the frequency is higher, "every day".

"The students' exams are very important. If a nail or sharp object accidentally gets stuck in the student's or parent's wheel while on the road, it could affect the exam. What I do is normal. As a citizen, I want to contribute a small part to help the students get to school more conveniently for the exam," Mr. Canh shared.

According to Mr. Canh, two days ago, he also pulled the car and sucked up the brake cables like today, sucking up about 200 grams each day. If a motorbike runs over a brake cable like that, the tire may not deflate immediately, and it will not be as harmful as the "diamond shaped" pieces.

According to Mr. Canh, the diamond-shaped nails no longer appear on National Highway 1 (section through Binh Chanh district) because the Binh Chanh district police force has resolutely intervened.
