Cars slow down and shield motorcycles amidst typhoon in Vietnam

As Super Typhoon Yagi battered North Vietnam with winds exceeding 160km/h, the violent storm wreaked havoc on the lives of those in its path.

Among the hardest hit were motorists, particularly motorcyclists, who faced an impossible challenge on the roads — trying not to get blown away by the treacherous winds.

In a post shared on X, a user captured a heartwarming moment of road users banding together to mitigate the danger.
