At noon on April 29, on Ha Long Street (Bai Chay Ward, Ha Long City), Ha Long City Traffic Police had to spread out forces along this street to regulate traffic.

Because at this time there are so many cars on the road causing traffic jams, motorbikes have to climb onto the sidewalks to move. The most serious traffic jams are the turnoff to Ha Long International Passenger Port and the beginning of Vuon Dao Street.

"My family left the hotel to go out to eat at 12 noon, but by 1 pm we still hadn't reached the restaurant. The car was moving slowly, so I booked a table at a restaurant near the hotel so we could walk there," said Tran Dinh Long (32 years old, a tourist from Hanoi ).
