A traffic incident occurred on 7/8 on provincial road DT499, passing through Bac Ly commune, resulting in a fatality. The motorcyclist, who was not wearing a helmet, was speeding and swerving past cars on a slippery road. A dashcam recorded the motorcycle's speed at approximately 60 km/h. Upon reaching an intersection, the motorcyclist encountered a truck crossing the road, braked sharply, fell onto the road, and collided with the truck. The accident resulted in the motorcyclist's death.

Driving safety tips: Road users should stay in their lane, avoid swerving or speeding, especially in adverse weather conditions. Meanwhile, truck drivers crossing roads must observe both sides carefully and check blind spots, only proceeding when it is safe to do so.

According to Decree 168 on road traffic violations, turning a vehicle without ensuring safety, which causes a traffic accident, results in a fine of 20-22 million VND and a deduction of 10 points from the driver's license.

In a similar incident, a young man not wearing a helmet, riding a motorbike at high speed, swerving and weaving, crashed directly into a turning bus in Hung Yen on 3/8.
