Hanoi's ubiquitous motorcylces may become a thing of the past. As the cities suffers from excessive air pollution and traffic jams, Hanoi is mulling over the idea of banning the two-wheeled vehicles from certain parts of the city. With an eye to an outright blanket ban by 2030, the city is looking first to conduct a pilot ban in certain areas. With a population of 7.5 million people riding some 5.2 million motorcycles, changes to the laws governing their use is sure to have wide-reaching effects.
