A 36-year-old truck driver has been fined nearly 46 million VND (approx. $1,800) and had his license revoked for 11 months after dangerously swerving across multiple lanes on the HCMC – Long Thanh – Dau Giay Expressway.
On August 4, the Cat Lai Traffic Police Team (under HCMC Traffic Police Department) issued a fine of 45 million VND for reckless driving under Decree 100, along with an additional 900,000 VND for failing to wear a seatbelt. His driving license was suspended for nearly a year.
The driver was caught on dashcam footage the afternoon of August 3 while operating a container truck from the An Phu interchange (Thu Duc City) toward Dong Nai. As he approached the Do Xuan Hop junction, the truck was seen dangerously weaving across all three lanes, obstructing and endangering vehicles behind. The footage quickly went viral on social media.
When questioned by authorities, the driver admitted his reckless behavior and cited emotional distress caused by family issues, claiming he was trying to “release his feelings.”
