Viral, a mother went berserk to the police in Gresik Regency, East Java, because her son did not pass after 13 times taking the driving license practice test or SIM C.

The woman's actions went viral to the police after a video showing her circulating via Whatsapp (WA) messages. The 4.57-minute video shows women in green heads protesting to police officers after their children did not pass the test of the practice of making a SIM C or a motorcycle driver's license.

Based on the video description, the mothers were angry because their 13 children took the SIM C practice exam or motorbike driver's license but did not pass.

In fact, according to him, National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo had previously ordered his staff to simplify the SIM practice exam process.

"Assalamualaikum, greetings to everyone, today on August 1, 2023 I want to tell you a little, I want to inform the National Police Chief, this morning I had an argument with the Gresik Police Traffic Unit officers, where my domicile was, earlier I wanted to tell my son why up to 13 times I didn't pass, it turned out that the Police Chief's appeal yesterday was not enforced, so earlier I wanted to meet Kasatlantas after my son was not released again for the 13th time," said the mother in a video caption quoted Friday, August 4.

The mother, who claimed to be named Marita, continued the story, when she was about to meet the Gresik Police Traffic Unit, one of the officers asked her to wait. However, not long after that the officer said that Kasatlantas was not in the room.

"I wanted to find a cassation earlier but it was not allowed, asked by the members, did you have an appointment? I said no, then the officer said 'I called Pak Kasat then yes ma'am, but it turned out that Mr. Kasat then there was none," he continued.

He then said that his son did not pass the SIM-making practice exam 13 times because the scheme on the track implemented at the Gresik Traffic Unit was still considered difficult. The mothers also mentioned the police chief's remarks who insinuated that passing the SIM practice exam could be circus players.

"My son has 13 times, sir, I don't want my son to become a circus player after passing the SIM test, it turns out that the police chief's appeal yesterday was not used, sir, the rules are still difficult," he explained.

In fact, Marita had vented her emotions while at the Gresik Traffic Unit office. However, the officers suppressed it.

Earlier I was angry there, finally it was suppressed by the officers. I met Mr. Candra, there he tried to cool me and find the best solution. It turned out that my husband, who was originally also complicated, was finally published, don't be like this, sir," he said in an overflowing tone.

For the incident, Marita requested that the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo immediately follow up by ratifying government regulations in lieu of laws related to the regulations for the SIM-making test scheme. The goal is so that the rules below do not make it difficult for the community.
