RIAU - The Riau Islands Provincial Transportation Service Patrol Car (Patwal of the Riau Islands Transportation Agency) overturned on the road to the Riau Islands Governor's office on Dompak Island, Tanjungpinang City, Tuesday, January 31 evening.
Head of the Riau Islands Transportation Agency, Junaidi, said the incident was caused by a tire slip and the road conditions were slippery after raining since noon.
The car was driven by a Dishub employee, Joni, who used to drive the vehicle of Riau Islands Governor Ansar Ahmad on the highway.
"Alhamdulillah, the driver is fine. There are no serious injuries, he only gets a little treatment because his left shoulder is a bit of pain," Junaidi said as quoted by Antara.
Junaidi explained that as a result of the incident, the Grand Vitara BP 99 car was damaged, especially on the front and rear.
Several moments after the four-wheeled vehicle capsized, several Riau Islands Transportation Agency officers immediately came to the scene to evacuate Joni's car and victim.
"The patwal car has been evacuated and towed to the workshop for repairs," said Junaidi.
Junaidi also appealed to the public to always be careful driving on the highway, because recently the intense rainfall occurred, causing the road conditions to be slippery.
"Pay attention to the speed or the brakes on the vehicle when the road is slippery, because it is prone to triggering road accidents," said Junadi.
