Policemen will enhance patrolling in city gate streets, the national highways, surrounding areas in Cat Lai, Tan Son Nhat Airport and bus stations to discover whether a driver take alcohol or stimulants.
Additionally, PC08 will asked preventive medicine centers in districts to test for all drivers in bus stations and harbors in the city to handle violations.

Just in one hour, five drunk drivers were found to have violated the law. Police seized all vehicles to prevent possible traffic accidents caused by drink drivers.
