JAKARTA - A woman driving a white Suzuki Baleno number B 2007 FFZ was also a victim of a Transjakarta bus accident in Cakung, East Jakarta, not far from Cakung Station. The unfortunate incident occurred after the victim took her child to school.

"At Cakung Station, I took my child to school, then I walked again. Suddenly from behind there was a bus (see) from the mirror, so I got out of the way, so I meant to get the bus passing first," said the driver of the car.

However, the Transjakarta bus continued to drive so that the car driven by the victim was hit by Transjakarta.

"The bus (Transjakarta) with the brakes failed, then the steering wheel couldn't handle it, so I was hit," he said.

In addition to hitting the victim's car, the Transjakarta bus also hit the house and a number of motorbikes.

"Before hitting me, from the front of the station, I had hit a motorbike. Earlier the driver was a woman, he said the brakes failed and the steering wheel couldn't be turned around," said the Baleno driver.

The victim also explained that the bus should not have crossed the route.

"This road can't have a bus (Transjakarta bus), yes, he should have turned over there but because the steering wheel can't be diverted so it's straight here. As far as I know it's not allowed here (Transjakarta)," he said.

As a result of the Transjakarta accident, the victim's car was badly damaged. The rear window was broken, the front left bumper was destroyed and several other damages.

"There has been no news from Transjakarta, but he said he will take care of it later. The clarity is not yet. My car was destroyed in the back, hit (Transjakarta)," he said.
