Accidents have decreased in six months
By Tuan Minh 16:12, 2014/06/27
The first half of the year saw fewer road accidents, with just around 12,800 cases compared to over 14,800 cases in the same period last year.

The number of fatalities in these accidents have also come down to 224 with 2,700 injured, which was less than the figures for the same period in 2013, revealed the latest National Traffic Safety Committee's latest report.

The statistics were reported at an online conference organised yesterday to review the country's traffic safety work during the first half of the year and discuss the remaining work for the last months, including land clearance for National Highway 1 and a part of the Ho Chi Minh Road running through Central Highlands and truck weighing control.
