The incident occurred on the evening of 31/1 at the Noi Bai intersection. As the red light turned green, traffic began to flow. However, a motorcycle, running the red light, sped into the middle of the intersection, lost control, and collided with the front of a car. The impact sent the rider flying into the air; they then fell to the road and lay motionless. Their casualty status is currently unknown.

This incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices. At intersections, drivers must reduce speed, observe traffic, and never run yellow or red lights. Running a red light carries severe penalties. According to Decree 168/2024 on traffic violation penalties, the act of running a red light incurs a fine of 4-6 million VND and 4 points deducted from the driving license (GPLX). If this action causes an accident, the fine increases to 10-14 million VND, with 10 points deducted from the GPLX.
