Clip: The cars can barely move.

On the morning of March 28, traffic congestion occurred on Pham Van Dong Street, through Linh Tay and Linh Dong wards (Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City).

Motorbikes climb curbs to avoid traffic jams but are still stuck

The traffic jam occurred at around 7:30, the worst being on Highway 9 to the Pham Van Dong - To Ngoc Van intersection, from Linh Xuan overpass to Binh Loi bridge. Motorbikes and cars lined up for nearly 2 km on the road. Some motorbikes even drove onto the sidewalk but could not escape the crowd of vehicles.

According to people's feedback, they have been moving normally these past few days. "I don't understand why the traffic jam is so terrible today! It's been more than half an hour but I haven't even gone 1 km" - said Mr. D.L (living in Binh Duong province).

Motorbikes and cars lined up nearly 2 km long on the road.

The Hang Xanh Traffic Police Team said the reason was that the number of vehicles passing through the above road this morning had increased dramatically, however people were still able to move slowly.

"We have arranged 4 officers to regulate traffic" - said the leader of Hang Xanh Traffic Police Team.
