JAKARTA - The public movement that is rife on social media entitled 'Stop Tot Wuk Wuk' related to the use of sirens and strobos by vehicle convoys received a response from the Minister of State Secretary (Mensesneg) Prasetyo Hadi.

Prasetyo asked public officials to pay attention to their propriety in using sirens on the highway so as not to exceed the reasonable limit.

Although there are rules that allow the use of sirens for the effectiveness of time under certain conditions, he stressed that its use must still maintain public order.

"Don't use it for something that goes beyond reasonable limits and still we have to pay attention and respect to other service users," said Prasetyo Saturday, September 20.

"More than that, even if the facility is used later, of course, it must pay attention to propriety, then pay attention to the public order of other road users. So that doesn't mean using these facilities, arbitrarily or arbitrarily," said Prasetyo.

Prasetyo added, the Ministry of State Secretariat continues to encourage propriety in order to respect other road users.

He gave an example of President Prabowo Subianto who is said to often set an example by being trapped in traffic jams or stopping at red lights if not in urgent conditions.

"You pay attention to the President giving examples, he himself, in getting escorts in traffic, he also often joins in traffic, even if the red light also stops, when there is nothing that is in a hurry to reach a certain place. The spirit is that spirit," said Prasetyo.

Previously, the 'Stop Tot Wuk Wuk' movement emerged from the unrest of the road users towards the behavior of some public officials who were considered excessive in using strobe lights on public roads.

The social media scene was then fulfilled by an invitation so that road users would not give priority to official registered vehicles, but only to ambulances and fire engines.
