Safety is a Priority, Passengers are Asked to be Disciplined when Boarding and Disembarking Trains
JAKARTA - KAI Commuter again invites all Commuter Line users to be more disciplined in complying with safety rules when boarding and disembarking trains in the platform area. The appeal was made to prevent potential accidents that could occur due to passengers' hasty actions.
One of the concerns is the habit of some users who jump down or up the train before the train stops perfectly on the station platform.
VP Corporate Secretary of KAI Commuter, Karina Amanda said that the action was a serious violation of safety because it could endanger themselves and other users in the platform area.
"KAI Commuter emphasizes that this action is also a very serious violation of safety, because it can hurt yourself and other users who are waiting in the platform area," Karina said in an official statement, Friday, May 29.
According to Karina, based on field monitoring, the incident of passengers getting off in a hurry before the train stopped perfectly is still often found, especially at transit stations between long-distance train services (KAJJ), local trains, and the Jabodetabek Commuter Line.
Karina emphasized that to create a safe and comfortable journey, all users are required to comply with basic safety rules while at the station or on the train.
KAI Commuter reminded passengers of a number of important rules to be observed, ranging from prohibiting forcibly opening the train door before the train stops perfectly, giving priority to passengers who get off before boarding the train, to paying attention to the gap between the platform and the train door.
"Including queuing in an orderly manner without pushing each other," he said.
In addition, parents who bring children are also asked to increase supervision, especially when they are in the platform area which borders directly with the railway line.
As part of the service commitment, KAI Commuter deploys security officers along the platform area to monitor passenger movements, provide safety warnings, and assist users who need assistance.
"By adhering to these simple rules, we not only protect ourselves, but also respect the right of other users to get a safe, comfortable, and safe trip to their destination," concluded Karina.
