JAKARTA - An elderly man (elderly) was almost hit by a Bangunkarta train (KA) crossing the JPL 30 Pasar Senen crossing, Senen District, Central Jakarta. At the time of the incident, the door was closed but the victim still broke through the crossing.

"The pedestrian continues to walk when there is a train that is about to pass. We deeply regret that there are pedestrians who do not heed the sirens of signs and bars at the closed crossing," said KAI Daop 1 Jakarta Public Relations Manager, Ixfan Hendriwintoko when confirmed by VOI, Wednesday, September 18.

The incident was discovered by internal security officers (PKD) of the railroad crossing who swiftly pulled the elderly pedestrian. Luckily the elderly man was rescued.

"We appreciate the internal security officers (PKD) who have swiftly shouted warning and chasing pedestrians to be pulled because the train is approaching, if the pedestrian is not pulled, it could hit a passing train," he said.

KAI appealed to the public to always comply with existing signs, both road users (drivers and pedestrians), especially on Jalan Perlantasan Langsung (JPL).

"If you want to pass the crossing, if the JPL door is closed, you must prioritize train travel for safety and security, both road users and trains," he said.

Regarding the rampant accidents that occurred at the Kemayoran train crossing (KA) due to vehicles breaking through the crossing gate, PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) Daop 1 Jakarta decided to give fines to pedestrians at the railroad gate in Jakarta.

The ticket sanctions will be applied on Jalan Perlantasan Langkat (JPL) No. 11 Km 2+595, the Rajawali-Kemayoran road plot, Central Jakarta on Thursday, September 19, tomorrow.
