Previously, at a regular press conference on the socio-economic situation held on January 11, Lieutenant Colonel Le Manh Ha, Deputy Head of the Ho Chi Minh City Police Department's Staff Department, said that in 2023, the police force detected and handled more than 651,000 traffic violations, temporarily detained more than 1,500 cars, more than 153,000 motorbikes and more than 1,200 3-wheel and 4-wheel vehicles.
