JAKARTA - An expedition service car of the Grandmax type was involved in a single accident due to a tire burst while crossing Jalan I Gusti Ngurah Rai, Duren Sawit District, East Jakarta.

The car lost control, then hit a road divider and a park on the median road. This accident occurred when the driver was about to go to an office in the Tambun area, Bekasi.

The car headed to Bekasi after delivering goods to the North Jakarta area. The driver also crossed the Buaran area on Jalan I Gusti Ngurah Rai.

However, when driving when the road was quiet, suddenly the right front tire of the car burst until finally the steering was slammed to the right of the road and hit it immediately.

One of the expedition workers, Engkus said, at the time of the incident, the car was traveling slowly on the public route of Jalan I Gusti Ngurah Rai, Duren Sawit.

"From the usual route, the road (at a speed of) 50 is slow. The road conditions are quiet. When the tire burst, it was immediately thrown to the right," he told reporters, Wednesday, October 4.

Engkus feels lucky because there were no injuries as a result of this single accident.

"The incident broke tires, swerved right and climbed the sidewalk. Alhamdulillah was just like that. Broke the right front tire. We sent goods from the North Jakarta area, wanted to return to Tambun," he said.

Luckily, the car driver managed to survive the single accident. However, the car he was driving was heavily damaged in the ascent of the broken wheel and the right side of the car was crushed.

Meanwhile, the minibus was immediately towed to the East Jakarta Satlantas Laka Unit office for further processing.
