Driving rules & facts

  1. Drive on the Right

    Vietnam uses right-hand traffic. Overtake on the left. On multi-lane roads, motorcycles must use the rightmost lane.

  2. Zero BAC Tolerance

    Absolute zero tolerance for ALL drivers since January 2020. Any detectable blood alcohol results in fines starting at ₫2 million (motorcycles) or ₫6 million (cars). Refusing a breath test carries the maximum penalty.

  3. Mandatory Helmet Law

    Helmets mandatory for all motorcycle riders and passengers aged 6+. Must meet TCVN 5756:2017 standard with chin strap fastened. Fine: ₫400,000–600,000 per person without helmet.

  4. 12-Point Demerit System

    Effective January 1, 2025. Each licence has 12 points. Violations deduct 2–12 points. Reaching zero invalidates the licence. 12 consecutive violation-free months restore all points.

  5. Compulsory Insurance

    Third-party motor vehicle liability insurance mandatory for all vehicles. Coverage: ₫150M per occurrence (death/injury). Property: ₫50M (motorcycle) / ₫100M (car). Fine for non-compliance: ₫100,000–600,000.

  6. Electronic Toll Collection

    Fully electronic toll (ETC) mandatory on all expressways since August 2022. Vehicles must have an ePass or VETC tag. All accounts converted to 'traffic accounts' since October 2025.

Tips for choosing a driving school in Vietnam

  1. Compare prices from at least 3 schools before enrolling. The cheapest option is not always the best — check what is included in the package.
  2. Ask schools about their pass rates. A higher pass rate often indicates better instruction quality.
  3. If Vietnam's official language is not your first language, ask if the school offers instruction or materials in your language.
