The La Son – Tuy Loan Expressway which runs 77.5 km, has two lanes spanning 12 m in width and allows vehicles to travel at a maximum of 80 kph.

Drivers say the fact that the expressway winds its way through mountainous areas without concrete medians or enough lights poses a serious threat of accidents.
