A long line of cars lined up from the intersection of DT765 and Highway 1, stretching about 3km to the Phan Thiet - Dau Giay Expressway. Many drivers tried to drive in the right lane but were also stuck.

Lieutenant Colonel Hoang Xuan An, Captain of Highway Patrol Team No. 6 (Traffic Police Department, Ministry of Public Security ) said that the Team has mobilized maximum force and coordinated with Dong Nai Province Traffic Police to flexibly open and close the highway to clear congestion on the Phan Thiet - Dau Giay highway.

The main reason is that at Km 94 there is a 2-lane toll station that creates a “bottleneck” causing traffic congestion for kilometers. Traffic police have to direct vehicles from a distance to move along National Highway 1 to Ho Chi Minh City.

On the same afternoon, also on this highway at the intersection with Highway 720 (Ham Tan District, Binh Thuan ), a line of cars moved slowly for kilometers. Traffic police were also present to regulate vehicles moving through the exit of Highway 720 to go to Highway 1 to Ho Chi Minh City.
