The taxi was identified as belonging to a firm operating in Hanoi.
However, some wondered whether the installation of the driver’s protective screen could alter the vehicle, making it dangerous to drive. Also, is such a modification approved by road management authorities such as the Vietnam Road Administration or Ministry of Transport?
On Monday morning, a representative from the taxi company said the installation of the screen was performed by the driver, without the knowledge or approval from bosses.
“It isn’t a company-wide policy,” the representative said on condition of anonymity.
He also explained the installation of the screen could affect the car’s performance.
