Many people, when seeing a yellow light, will usually speed up to pass it instead of stopping. If someone has stopped, they immediately honk their horn to make it easier to pass the yellow light - Illustration: TRIEU VAN
Regarding the story of many people ignoring traffic laws, trying to run a red light for 1-2 seconds, honking loudly, Tuoi Tre Online received many comments from readers. That clearly shows that people not only acknowledge the above situation but are also very dissatisfied with it.
There are 1-2 seconds left at the red light, why are you in a hurry to honk to make others pass?
Reading the article, Hanh left a short comment: "Riding and using the horn indiscriminately."
Reader Hai Dang said he sympathized with the feeling of being suddenly honked at by a car behind him, which was very annoying. That was when Hai Dang was stopped at a yellow light on Tran Hung Dao Street and Ham Nghi Street (District 1, Ho Chi Minh City), a taxi rushed up from behind, honking loudly.
"I jumped forward just as the light on Ham Nghi street had just turned green. Looking at the rearview mirror, I saw the white taxi stop at the red light and I suddenly became the one who ran the red light," reader Hai Dang wrote.
According to reader My Toan , honking occurs mostly in cars, buses and taxis. My Toan said this culture is "probably hard to change", because even when the house is in a small alley, the sound of horns can still be heard frequently, day or night, even when the road is deserted. "Sitting in an air-conditioned car, I don't know why I keep honking the horn, even though there are still a few seconds until the green light," wrote reader My Toan.
Reader Duong also agrees with My Toan, when the traffic jam is hot but many people honk continuously, it's very headache.
Tan Thi said: "In this particular case, the buses were at the top. They ran red lights, cut into lanes, and honked when the red light was only a few seconds away."
Meanwhile, reader Nghieptran thinks that when entering the Saigon River Tunnel, there are still many people honking (this is a road where honking is prohibited - PV), so what's the point of being on the street? It's boring to think about.

Traffic culture education is needed from primary school.
According to reader Thanh Nguyen , sirens are a serious source of pollution.
Binh Son said he was very scared of the shippers who kept running yellow lights and red lights, and immediately honked loudly when there were people in front of them, while their trucks were so full of goods that their license plates were covered. "The traffic police should be strict with these people," Binh Son wrote.
Reader Triet Nguyen believes that traffic culture needs to be taught from elementary school, not waiting until driving school is too late.
Agreeing with Triet Nguyen, reader Khanh thinks that driving school only trains to pass the test, not to train awareness, culture, or understanding of the law.
Sharing the same opinion, reader Huygo should add the solution of taking advantage of social networks, where there are many followers, to organize propaganda and carry out special topics to raise people's awareness of participating in civilized and safe traffic. "Traffic culture and environmental awareness have seriously degraded," Huygo wrote.
Two extremely dangerous habits
According to Tuoi Tre Online reader Chanh Tin Nghia , Vietnamese people need to change two extremely dangerous habits when participating in traffic: honking indiscriminately and driving in the wrong direction. Many people often drive in the wrong direction to find the shortest and most convenient route, thereby creating extreme danger for themselves and everyone else.
Point out the "noisy" roads
According to reader Tran Tuan , Highway 13 has many types of long-distance buses honking "unstoppably". The sound is terrible but is not handled, pedestrians are often startled and some have fallen.
According to reader Hoang , on Highway 51, even though the red light had 5 seconds left, the air horn started to sound. "Dump trucks and trucks are the two most aggressive types, covering their license plates in many ways so they are not afraid of being fined. Highway 51 is countless," Hoang wrote.
