Police Part One
"Authorities have confiscated more than 100 motorcycles in Ho Chi Minh City for racing and reckless riding as Vietnam tries to improve traffic safety, police said on Tuesday. The bikes were seized over the weekend and will be held for 30 days and returned to the owners after they pay fines, an officer said on condition of anonymity. The drivers weren't detained.
Meanwhile, police in the capital, Hanoi briefly detained 10 people for illegal motorbike racing on Sunday, state-controlled media reported. Illegal motorbike racing has begun resurfacing in recent months after a police crackdown. Illegal racers face up to 15 years in jail while organizers of such events could be imprisoned for life.
Motorbikes are Vietnam's predominant mode of transportation, and accidents are a major cause of deaths and injuries. Traffic accidents killed 12,000 people nationwide last year. The government says it has made improving traffic safety a top priority, and that it has increased the number of police to enforce often-ignored basic laws."
