The toll collection is piloted in 5 cities: Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Can Tho and Hai Phong. Figure 1: Amount of vehicles in 5 major cities in 2020The number of motorbikes in circulation in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hai Phong and Can Tho can reach tens of millions of units. Collecting such a large amount of money makes motorbikes subject to many fees. Not to mention the registration fee, number plate, and registration fee (both cars and motorbikes) have increased very high compared to the past. Since January 1, 2012, cars and motorbikes continued to be subject to environmental protection tax, which is included in the price of gasoline and possibly road maintenance fees that have been submitted to the Government by the Ministry of Transport for approval.The increase in toll rates for personal transport has a negative impact on the welfare of all households and people, as prices increase accordingly. At that time, people with high incomes are affected slightly more than the poor. However, the poor will suffer more than the rich because of their less income.
