Major Vu Thi Thanh Nga shared that she has been serving in the police force for 20 years and has escorted hundreds of international delegations. Each mission requires meticulous preparation. "I consider this both a duty and an honor. I promise to perform my duties with excellence," she stated.

The traffic policemen ride the "King of the Road" super motorbikes in formation, performing maneuvers to clear the way and protect the convoy.

According to the planned route, the escort team will depart from Noi Bai Airport, travel along Vo Nguyen Giap Road, cross Nhat Tan Bridge, and then head to the city center.

The escort team is deployed in an arrowhead formation with three vehicles at the front and four at the rear. The front three vehicles are responsible for clearing the way and stopping traffic at intersections. The rear vehicles prevent other vehicles from intruding into the convoy.

The ultra-luxurious Aurus Senat limousine, a flagship of the Russian automotive industry, was spotted on Kim Ma Street in Ba Dinh District.

The convoy passed through Ly Thai To Street, near the Metropole Hotel.

Trang Tien Street, Hoan Kiem District.

Recently, the sight of traffic police riding large-displacement motorcycles on the streets, escorting leaders of the Party, State, and international guests during their visits in Vietnam, has left a strong impression due to its modernity and professionalism.

On average, the Traffic Police Department of Hanoi organizes more than 500 escort plans each year for official delegations and state guests visiting Vietnam.

With their extensive experience, the traffic police force of the capital city are determined to excel in their duties, building a positive and professional image in the eyes of international friends.
