The Jakarta Traffic Police plan to guard approximately 4 million motorcyclists leaving for their hometowns during Idul Fitri holidays, police said on Tuesday.
Jakarta Police traffic division chief Sr. Comr. Condro Kirono suggested that people planning to use motorcycle for the holidays should go in groups and report it to the police for a free guard.
"So far, we have received proposals from about 15,000 bikers groups," Condro said, adding that most of them are managed by their employers' companies.
"We have been gearing up 235 patrol vehicles to guard them until the border of the Greater Jakarta territory," he added.
Condro said that the police also provided four free vehicle service centers, located in Kedung Waringin (Bekasi), Grand Cakung (East Jakarta), Samsat Daan Mogot (West Jakarta), and Citra Raya (Tangerang).
At the service centers, Condro said, bikers are also provided with free resting places and a doctor to check the bikers' physical condition. (bbs)
