The program was implemented at two main locations: National Highway 1 (Chau Thanh commune) and National Highway N2 (Thap Muoi commune). At these locations, traffic police officers, along with local youth union members, provided free bottled water, cold towels, cakes, and milk, and facilitated rest and recovery for residents after their long journey.

In total, the program prepared 40,000 bottles of water, 30,000 wet wipes, 4,000 biscuits, 3,000 cartons of milk, and 20,000 informational leaflets, all carefully packaged and ready to be delivered directly to the people.

It is noteworthy that the spirit of "mutual support and compassion" is spreading strongly throughout the community. Many people, upon seeing the "Compassionate Rest Stop," proactively helped by distributing water and snacks to the locals.

Upon learning about the program, several individuals and local businesses voluntarily donated hundreds of additional cases of bottled water to supplement the supply at charitable locations, ensuring sufficient water to meet the needs of the people throughout the peak Tet holiday season.
Comrade Dinh Van Minh Nhut, an officer of the Traffic Police Department, said: "Through the 'Compassionate Rest Stop' program, the traffic police force hopes to contribute to helping people have a convenient and safe journey back to their families during this meaningful Tet holiday."

In addition to providing drinking water and assistance to the public, the rest stops also actively disseminate information about traffic safety laws through the distribution of leaflets and mobile loudspeaker announcements.
This activity aims to raise public awareness of traffic laws, contributing to curbing and reducing traffic accidents during the holiday period.

The program was implemented on February 13th and 14th (the evenings of the 26th and 27th of the Lunar New Year). "The Compassionate Rest Stop" is a model of effective community outreach regularly maintained by the Dong Thap Provincial Police, especially during major holidays. The activity is conducted on a voluntary basis and through the socialization of funding sources, following the principles of safety, economy, and effectiveness.

In particular, to facilitate people's travel back to their hometowns for Tet (Lunar New Year), the traffic police have proactively installed directional signs at strategic locations along the route.
Road signs are densely placed at intersections, junctions between national highways, provincial roads, and inter-communal roads, especially in areas prone to confusion or at points of intersection leading to local areas.

"Many people returning to their hometowns, especially those traveling from far away and unfamiliar with the roads, easily get lost or have to stop and ask for directions multiple times. Installing directional signs helps people save time, reduce stress, and ensure safety while traveling, especially at night," shared Major Ngo Van Tuan Linh, an officer from the Traffic Police Department.
In addition, traffic signs contribute to effective traffic flow management, reducing congestion at intersections, and simultaneously improving traffic law compliance among road users.
