Trucks Hit Transportation Up To 11 People Died, Causes Of Accidents Still Being Investigated

PURWOREJO - Central Java Regional Police investigated the cause of a deadly truck accident loaded with sand with public transportation that killed 11 people on the Magelang-Purworejo border.

In the initial crime scene (TKP), said Director of Traffic and Traffic of the Central Java Police, Kombes Pratama Adhyasastra, in Purworejo, Wednesday, the police have not found the former braking truck loaded with sand.

Kombes Pol. Pratama conveyed this when monitoring the scene of the case, precisely in Kalijambe Village, Bener District, Purworejo Regency.

On that occasion, his party had seen firsthand the crime scene processing from the start until the truck loaded with sand rolled over.

"We are still investigating. What is clear is that this truck is running from north to south," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 7.

At this corner, he continued, the truck hit the left side, then hit the right side of the vehicle. This incident began when the truck swayed and was about to overtake the transport.

According to him, actually trucks should not overtake because the road markings are not allowed and there is a straight line.

"Is the brakes broken or haven't had time to brake? We're still investigating," he said.

If you look at the crime scene, said Kombes Pratama, his party has not found a used brake.

"We will investigate whether he was shocked and didn't brake or the brakes didn't work," he said.
