Vietnamese authorities penalize underage motorcycle driving

Overview

Law enforcement authorities in Vietnam have taken action against minors for dangerous motorcycle operation and traffic violations.

His parent was also cited for allowing an unqualified person to operate the vehicle. Authorities in the region are conducting judicial assessments to determine if the motorcycle should be confiscated.

In Son La province, police seized a motorcycle after monitoring social media footage of a 14-year-old performing wheelies and riding without license plates or rearview mirrors.
