Joint efforts of the community and preventive measures by authorities will be an effective tool to prevent road rage fights in Vietnam.

Road rage has been on the rise in several localities nationwide over the past few months, sparking widespread public outrage.

Tech-based drivers and commuters have fallen victim to serious assaults following minor crashes on the streets.

A quick response to road rage scuffles by traffic police officers has been a positive signal of increased efforts in preventing street violence.

Promptly handling road rage fights not only demonstrates the strictness of the law but also enhances trust in justice protection by the police force among residents.

However, resolving the aggression after these brawls happened is just a temporary solution.

To stamp out road rage, police and local authorities should adopt preventive measures.

Additionally, some recent road rage fights have been handled thanks to residents' quick response.

Videos and clips captured by bystanders documenting severe street aggression have become crucial evidence, aiding police in addressing these incidents.

This reflects a growing collective effort by the community to stand against road rage.

However, the community’s role in curbing road rage should go beyond merely recording altercations or reporting assaults.

Moreover, they should join hands to build public decorum.

A society where people cherish solidarity and are willing to protect weak people and justice will become tough for violence to exist.

Besides, witnesses should be protected carefully to ensure that they will not face revenge attacks.

The witness protection policy will encourage residents to be courageous to report aggressive drivers.

Education plays a key role in preventing violence. Children should be educated about benevolence and how to resolve conflicts by peaceful solutions.

Many anti-violence campaigns should be rolled out to raise awareness about proper behavior in public places and about moral standards.

Road rage fights are rampant in many cities and localities, but the aggression really made residents’ blood boil when a deadly assault happened in Ben Cat City under Binh Duong Province, a neighbor of Ho Chi Minh City, a few days ago.

The scuffle broke out following a minor crash between two motorcycles, leading to a 39-year-old man dying from brain injury due to physical violence in spite of doctors’ treatment efforts.

Rampant road rage attacks raised a question why angry drivers do not fear punishment and they react violently regardless of being filmed.

These aggressive drivers possibly believed that they could escape legal sanctions.

In addition, a boom in social media is contributing to creating a sense of normalizing street violence as too many clips showing traffic-related assaults are going viral.

Some people use violence to either show their strength or relieve work or home stress.
