JAKARTA - Chairman of the Daily Management of the Indonesian Consumers Foundation (YLKI) Tulus Abadi assessed that the deadly accident of tourism buses was accompanied by students of SMK Lingga Kencana Depok in the derivative of Ciater, Subang due to two factors, namely humans and technical matters. "The main factor is the human resource factor (HR/human factor), namely the lack of rest for transportation crews, especially drivers," he said, quoted from Antara, Sunday, May 12. He assessed that bus drivers often lack sleep, or lack quality rest. This is a serious reflection of the safety aspect of public transportation. He also assessed that bus fleet companies lack or do not pay attention to the safety of transportation crews. This, according to him, was proven by the successive accidents experienced by the bus group of students from Depok. Second, he continued, technical factors also contributed. He assessed the bus fleet used under treatment, especially on the brake part. "Usually because the brakes failed, the brake canvas is already aus. or using the fake brake canvas," he said.
