A motorcyclist fell from the flyover of Tanjung Emas Port, Semarang City, Central Java, after crashing into a road divider. Head of Subunit 2 Gakkum Satlantas Polrestabes Semarang, Ipda Agus Tri Handoko, said that the victim Rio Novianto, a resident of Gisikdrono, West Semarang, Semarang City, was injured and had to receive treatment at the hospital. "He suffered a head injury and allegedly broke his left leg," he said in Semarang, Antara, Friday, January 19. According to him, the incident began when the victim was traveling from west to east. When crossing the flyover, the victim allegedly was not alert enough to hit the concrete barrier on the branched road before finally bouncing down. Agus said the victim was not sleepy or drunk while driving. From this incident, he appealed to motorized vehicle drivers to always be vigilant and obey traffic signs while driving.

"Prioritize safety rather than speed while driving," he added.
