JAKARTA - Head of the Transjakarta Corporate Secretary Division, Anang Rizkani Noor, spoke about the death of a cyclist after being hit by a Transjakarta bus in the Pasar Minggu area, July 10, at 14:10 WIB.

According to Anang, the Transjakarta driver honked his horn when he saw the victim with the initials SA close by. However, because the SA allegedly did not take into account speed, and there was a speed bump, it caused him to fall.

"While the bus was moving slowly, from the right side a cyclist tried to overtake the bus. The driver honked his horn to give a warning," said Anang in his statement, Monday, July 11.

After that, the victim's body was evacuated and taken to the Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM) for an autopsy. The victim's family can understand the incident.

"The victim was evacuated and taken to the RSCM for an autopsy," he said.

Meanwhile, Kasi Laka, Gakkum Sub-Directorate of Ditlantas Polda Metro Jaya, Kompol Edy Purwanto, said that the accident started when a bicycle was pedaled by SA trying to overtake a Transjakarta bus, which was stopped at the bus stop.

The bus driver with the initials N did not see the bicycle SA was trying to overtake him. At the same time N runs the bus he is driving, while SA has not completely overtaken.

As a result, the right side of the Transjakarta bus collided with SA's bicycle. The cyclist fell, and his head hit the pavement. The collision caused SA to die at the scene.

"SA's body was taken to Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital for a post-mortem et repertum. Meanwhile the bus driver is under investigation," he said.
