More dangerously, at alley 95/38 Ha Giang (Ward 1), a man riding a motorbike was swept away by the water of Ha Giang stream while crossing the road.

The reason why roads such as Le Van Tam, Ky Con (Ward 2) and Ha Giang (Ward 1, Bao Loc City) are often flooded when it rains heavily is because the drainage system is too small and degraded, so when water flows from all directions, it cannot drain in time and causes flooding.

The heavy rain also caused some alleys on Ha Giang Street (Ward 1), Le Hong Phong Street (Ward 1), Nguyen Cong Tru Street (section through Bao Loc New Market), Huynh Thuc Khang Street (Ward 2), Tran Phu Street (section through Tam Chau, Loc Son Ward) to be flooded from 0.2 - 0.4 m, making traffic difficult.

Previously, heavy rain occurred on the night of June 17, causing Le Van Tam Street and Ky Con Street (Ward 2) to be deeply flooded.
