JAKARTA - Truck loaded with orange waste with a red plate B 9470 TOR allegedly belonging to the East Jakarta Environment Agency (LH) had a single accident at KM 51, JORR Toll Road towards Cakung, East Jakarta, Thursday, November 28, afternoon.

The license plate of the truck's police number (nopol) was also observed dead, not paying taxes. The plate is written in 2021.

Meanwhile, this single accident is thought to have been caused by the condition of the car that was undertreated and could not operate normally.

The truck loaded with garbage going to Bantar Gebang, Bekasi, overturned due to a tire burst. The truck capsized until the garbage load spilled onto the road.

An eye witness to the incident, Tomy said, the truck overturned due to a single accident due to a tire burst. The truck tires were observed to have been stripped.

"The truck headed towards Bekasi. There was an explosion that was thought to have come from a broken tire," Tomy told reporters.

From VOI's observation, the truck loaded with garbage belonging to the East Jakarta Environment Agency overturned on the shoulder of the toll road. The truck's body covered half of the toll road body.

Vehicles passing by were forced to reduce their speed. In fact, due to this incident, the flow of vehicle traffic on the toll road has a long traffic jam of up to several kilometers.

Garbage in the truck's cargo also spilled over on the toll road, so that four-wheeled vehicles and others that were about to pass from the left side of the road also slowed down.

There were no injuries or fatalities as a result of this truck accident. However, the cleaning staff is still waiting for the process of evacuating the garbage truck until Thursday afternoon.
