Deadly Bus Crash in Batu, East Java: Unroadworthy Bus Claims Four Lives, Authorities Investigate

Article:

In a grim reminder of the persistent road safety issues in Indonesia, another fatal bus crash has occurred, this time in Batu, East Java. The incident involved a tourist bus, Sakhindra Trans, with the license plate DK 7942 GB, which is suspected to have experienced brake failure, resulting in a collision with 10 motorcycles and 6 cars. Sadly, this crash claimed the lives of four individuals.

Investigations by the police have revealed that the bus was not Fit for Service. According to Director of Traffic Police (Dirlantas) of East Java Provincial Police, Kombes Pol Komarudin, the bus’s Certificate of Roadworthiness (KIR) had expired since December 2023, and its operating permit had not been renewed since 2020.

Komarudin also disclosed that the bus driver had reportedly informed the bus owner or the operating company about the unroadworthy condition of the bus. Furthermore, inspections found that three other buses from the same fleet were also not fit for service.

Transportation expert Djoko Setijowarno discovered that the operating permit for the bus with license plate DK 7942 GB had expired, as shown in the Mitra Darat application from the Ministry of Transportation. The permit expired on April 26, 2020, and the last recorded periodic inspection was at Pulogadung, Jakarta, with its status expired on December 15, 2023.

This incident is not the first fatal crash involving large vehicles such as buses and trucks in Indonesia. Lessons must be learned to prevent such tragedies from recurring. Djoko emphasized that the government has not been serious enough in addressing transportation safety issues, stating, "Safety is not a priority for the state."

Djoko advised passengers to not solely consider the fare when choosing a bus service. They should also investigate the safety and maintenance aspects of the vehicles they use. Passenger vehicles should also be cautious around buses, especially given that the victims in this particular crash were not passengers but other road users.

Fatal Crash in Pekanbaru: Family of Three Killed After Consuming Drugs

In a tragic turn of events, the police have uncovered new details surrounding a fatal crash in Pekanbaru, Riau, that claimed the lives of three family members. The incident occurred after the driver and passengers consumed a type of drug known as sabu in Palembang, prior to celebrating the new year’s eve.

According to investigations by the Riau Police, the driver, Antoni, was sought by Lidia to transport a vehicle from Sukabumi to Batam, Kepulauan Riau. Lidia requested Antoni’s help in driving the vehicle from Sukabumi to the port in Riau, with the intention to take the vehicle to Batam via the ferry.

Antoni and Lidia set off from Sukabumi on the evening of December 29. Upon reaching Palembang, Antoni contacted Deni to assist in driving the vehicle in shifts. Before embarking on the journey, both Antoni and Lidia confessed to consuming sabu, a stimulant, to stay awake and alleviate any physical discomfort during the trip.

Deni also admitted to taking sabu before joining the group. Celebrations for the new year saw them consuming alcohol, further impeding their judgment and reaction times.

The trio spent the night indulging in festivities in Pekanbaru to welcome the new year, taking advantage of the city’s vibrant atmosphere. Their inability to rest due to the effects of sabu, coupled with alcohol consumption, likely contributed to the fatal crash that occurred later.

This unsettling incident underscores the dangers of mixing drugs and alcohol while operating a vehicle. The police urge all road users to exercise caution and refrain from impaired driving.

  • Three Lives Lost in Fatal Crash; Family Returns from Pilgrimage

PEKANBARU, Indonesia – A fatal road accident in Pekanbaru has claimed the lives of three family members returning from a pilgrimage. The collision involved a speeding car that crossed into oncoming traffic, resulting in multiple casualties.

The accident occurred at 6:30 AM local time on Wednesday, January 1, 2025, on Jalan Hang Tuah. A Toyota Calya with license plate F 1817 VI, driven by 44-year-old Antoni Romansyah, was traveling at high speed from the direction of Hang Tuah Ujung. Along with Antoni, the car carried two other passengers: 25-year-old Lidia Putri, and 30-year-old Denni.

As the Toyota Calya approached Siaga Medika Clinic 2, Antoni lost control of the vehicle, veering left onto the opposite lane and colliding with a Honda Beat motorbike carrying a family of three: 38-year-old Anton Sujarwo, his 42-year-old wife Afrianti, and their 10-year-old son Aditia.

The impact was severe, causing the family’s motorbike to be dragged along the road before being thrown clear. The Toyota Calya, still moving at a high speed, then struck a second Honda Scoopy motorbike traveling in the opposite direction. The Scoopy was ridden by 22-year-old Dwi Irwanto and his 25-year-old passenger Liani.

Sadly, all three members of the first motorbike’s family—Anton, Afrianti, and Aditia—lost their lives in the crash. Mr. Romansyah and the two cars’ passengers sustained injuries and were taken to the hospital for treatment.

"We can confirm that all three victims on the Honda Beat were from the same family," said Alvin, the Head of the Pengadilan Negeri (District Court) Police in Pekanbaru. "The incident is currently under investigation, and the car’s driver has been apprehended for further questioning."

This tragic accident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of reckless driving and the importance of adhering to traffic safety regulations. Our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to the victims’ families during this difficult time.

"Jeju Air Pilot Alerts Mayday: Bird Strike Preceded Tragic Crash"

Headline: Jeju Air Plane Tragedy: Pilot Ejected Mayday Signal Due to Bird Strike Minutes Before Crash

Article:

In a tragic turn of events, a Jeju Air plane experienced a bird strike just minutes before it crashed at Muan International Airport in South Korea, killing 179 passengers on board. The pilot had ejected a mayday signal due to the incident, raising questions about the fateful crash that has left the aviation community stunned.

The Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport confirmed that the pilot of the Boeing 737-800 aircraft (flight 7C2216) declared a mayday at 08:59 local time. The alarm was raised just two minutes after an air traffic control warning was issued about the bird strike at 08:57.

"After receiving the bird strike warning, the pilot declared a mayday," a ministry spokesperson said, quoted by Yonhap News Agency. The pilot was subsequently given permission to land on the opposite direction of runway 1. However, the aircraft veered off the runway, hitting the surrounding concrete wall, and eventually exploded.

All 175 passengers and four cabin crew members on board were confirmed dead, with only two flight attendants miraculously surviving the crash. The ill-fated flight had departed from Bangkok, Thailand, carrying a total of 181 individuals on board.

Eye-witness footage captured the harrowing moment when the plane arrived without its landing gear, skidding on its belly before bursting into flames. Early reports suggest that a combination of bird strike and adverse weather conditions may have contributed to the accident.

While the cause of the crash is still under investigation, public scrutiny has fallen on the relatively short runway at Muan International Airport, which is currently under construction and measures around 2,500 meters. However, the ministry maintains that the length of the runway was not a factor in the crash, stating that the plane in question could safely land on a runway measuring as little as 1,500 meters.

As the aviation community mourns the loss of life, all eyes are on the investigation process to determine the exact cause of the Jeju Air plane crash and prevent similar tragedies in the future.
