YOGYAKARTA - Some time ago a viral video circulated showing a motorcyclist recklessly cutting off the motorcade of President Jokowi's official car. The incident occurred when President Jokowi made a working visit at Terong Market, Makassar, South Sulawesi. This disturbing action also sparked a stir among netizens on social media. Many have questioned the sanctions of breaking through the motorcade of the president's vehicle.

The 26-second video shows a motorcyclist without a helmet deliberately cutting the front lane of the president's official car on Jalan Gunung Bawakaraeng, Makassar. The automatic motorcyclist with a Brong exhaust almost hit the president's official car.

The reckless action of breaking through the convoy of President Jokowi's vehicles did not only happen this time. In November 2022, a woman walked into the convoy of presidential escort vehicles during a working visit at Badung Market, Bali. The woman came to the president's car and wanted to greet Jokowi. So what are the sanctions for breaking through the presidential vehicle convoy?

There are a number of vehicles that have priority on the use of roads or obtaining main rights to take precedence. The main rights to road use have been regulated in Article 134 and Article 135 of Law (UU) Number 22 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation.

Article 134 states that there are several road users who get the main things first, namely as follows:

Article 135 states the procedures for regulating smoothness, as follows:

The general public of road users is asked to give in when the vehicles mentioned above are passing. The president, including road users who get the privilege, must be prioritized and escorted. Even road markings can be used if the president passes.

The rules prohibiting people from breaking through the convoy of presidential and VVIP vehicles, so that other important vehicles are contained in Law Number 22 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation.

Every road user who does not comply with orders given by the Indonesian National Police officers will be subject to sanctions as stipulated in Article 282 of the LLAJ Law.

Road users who violate or break through the presidential convoy can be sentenced to imprisonment or fines. Violators can be punished in accordance with Article 104 paragraph (3), namely imprisonment for one month or a maximum fine of IDR 250 thousand.

Such are the penalties or sanctions for breaking through the presidential convoy of vehicles. The president's official car, ambulance, and other VVIP vehicles need to take precedence because the vehicle is in an emergency and concerns the public interest or many people.
