Central Java Police Traffic Directorate prioritizes the Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement (ETLE) system in taking action against traffic violations throughout Central Java using sophisticated cameras.

Through the use of technology, the Central Java Police hopes to be able to maintain traffic order more effectively. In addition, the use of this technology allows the process of taking action without bureaucratic barriers or obstacles in the field, so that people can feel a fairer and more open system.

Although technology-based law enforcement is increasingly being prioritized, Kombes Sonny Irawan emphasized that manual ticketing is still selectively applied for violations that have the potential to cause fatality of traffic accidents.

"The manual ticket is only used for 7 (seven) priority selective violations that cause traffic accident fatality, and is carried out by officers who have received a special order," explained Kombes Sonny Irawan.

The seven selective violations were, 1. Overload, 2. Riding more than two people, 3. Not wearing a helmet, 4. Violating the road markings, 5. Consumption of drugs while driving, 6. Exceeding the speed limit or illegal racing and 7. Breaking the red light. " explained Kombes Sonny, in a written statement, Monday, September 16.

In an effort to enforce the law fairly, the National Police no longer conducts stationary raids or ticketing on the spot.

"Law enforcement against traffic violations all uses ETLE cameras. So, it is not true that in the Central Java Regional Police and the ranks there are still stationary ticketing or raids on the spot," he said.

By focusing on transparency and justice through the use of ETLE technology, the Central Java Police hopes that the public can increasingly understand the importance of traffic order. Through this system, violations can be clearly monitored, while prosecution is carried out without prejudice or debate in the field, so that the road situation is expected to be more orderly and safe.

The Central Java Police continues to optimize the use of technology, such as ETLE, to ensure that traffic law enforcement runs more effectively and transparently. We hope that, with the lack of direct interaction between officers and violators, public trust in the legal system will increase," he added.

Technology-based law enforcement such as ETLE is a major step in the efforts of the National Police to strengthen transparency and reduce the potential for abuse of authority. Through the application of this system, the National Police wants to create a more orderly, safe, and orderly traffic culture, in order to create a more aware and safe society.
