BANDUNG - Four people died after being involved in a collision on the Bandung-Cirebon Highway, Tanjungsari District, Sumedang Regency, West Java.
Kasatlantas Sumedang Polres AKP Kiki Hartaki said the accident was allegedly caused by a truck with license plate number D 9597 AE that rammed three cars and four motorcycles while downhill.
"The truck carrying a cargo of coal drove from Cirebon to Bandung when it arrived at the road mentioned above, when it passed the road when it turned left, it crashed downhill," said Kiki in Sumedang, quoted by Antara, Sunday, November 7.
The vehicles involved in the accident were Pajero, Rush, Sigra, and Satria F, Smash, Scoopy, and Vario motorcycles.
