On November 5, 2025, road traffic in Vietnam recorded remarkable developments: from a serious accident on a mountain pass, the impact of storms and rain on traffic organization in large urban areas. Due to the approaching circulation of Typhoon Kalmaegi, many areas have been warned of the risk of traffic disruption, flooding or landslides. Therefore, today's fluctuations pose higher requirements for traffic awareness and response from the people.

Analysis & assessment
The accident on Bao Loc pass is clear evidence that mountain passes, steep roads and high traffic volumes (trucks, containers) always pose high risks — especially when there are curves, overturns, brake failure or vehicle wobbles. Rescue and traffic flow are difficult, traffic is blocked.
The storm warning shows that road traffic, especially in coastal and central areas, not only faces congestion or collisions but can also be flooded, landslides, and long-term road closures. Traffic participants need to prepare information and alternative routes in advance.
Although the news about Ho Chi Minh City is not a negative incident, it shows that urban traffic is also innovating - the introduction of double-decker bus routes is a positive signal for public transport options, reducing pressure on personal roads. However, innovation needs to go hand in hand with appropriate infrastructure and traffic coordination.
Overall, today emphasizes two aspects: high risk due to natural disasters + major traffic incidents and upgrading/innovating urban traffic. But in the context of an upcoming storm, the priority should be safety and prevention.
Conclusion & Recommendations
On November 5, 2025, road traffic in Vietnam is affected by both incidents (pass accidents) and natural disasters (storms, floods, landslides). This is a day when road users need to be especially careful.
Recommendations for road users:
Avoid traveling through mountain passes and steep slopes, especially when there are many trucks/container trucks circulating. If necessary, reduce speed, keep a large distance, pay attention to slippery roads and sharp turns.
In coastal areas, the Central region and islands where storms are coming, limit travel when there is a notice; if traveling, choose a safe route, avoid times of heavy rain, high waves or affected coastal roads.
In urban areas such as Ho Chi Minh City, encourage the use of public transport or non-private vehicle options to reduce pressure on roads and ensure safety, especially when weather and traffic conditions fluctuate.
Follow announcements from authorities, warnings from traffic agencies, online traffic maps to update road conditions, congestion, accidents and choose the right route.
