The number of vehicles in Ho Chi Minh City has increased nearly 10 percent annually for the past five years, while its road space has expanded only 2 percent a year, according to the report by the transport department.
The number of vehicles has risen to more than seven million including 6.4 million motorbikes.
Pham Sanh, a transport expert, told Tuoi Tre news that if all the seven million vehicles were out on the streets at the same time, they would cover up all the road space of more than 26 million square meters.
No one would be able to move, he said.
