Thu Minh 11:40, 2015/10/11
At the 19th plenary session in Hanoi on October 9, the National Assembly’s Committee for National Defence and Security gave comments on Government report of the implementation of ensuring traffic order and safety in 2015 and tasks in 2016.
According to the report, the number of serious accidents relating to passenger cars and trucks has been controlled. In the first nine months of this year, traffic safety across the country saw positive changes with the numbers of deaths and injuries continuing to drop.
In January-September, traffic police nationwide temporarily seized 29,560 cars and 377,420 motorbikes and rescinded 260,884 driving licences.
There were 16,459 accidents which left 6,518 people dead and another 14,929 injured, representing decreases of 2,239 in terms of cases, and 240 in terms of fatalities and 2,906 in injuries.
The committee’s members held that the report covered road traffic but did not look into railway and waterway situations.

Delegates said it must analyse accident causes and identify the responsibility of heads of localities in order to put forth effective solutions, thus fulfilling the legislature’s target of 5-10 percent declines of accidents, deaths and injuries nationwide in 2015.
Discussing measures to ensure traffic safety and order in the last months of this year and next year, the delegates called for efforts from the entire political system, all organisations and individuals.
The Committee for National Defence and Security proposed to continue to strictly control the load of transportation means, timely solve cases of violations and strive reducing accidents in all provinces.
They also emphasised the need to increase inspection over railway and internal waterway traffic safety.
