KEDIRI - Kediri Resort Police, East Java, handled a traffic accident, namely a car crashing into a motorcycle driven by a mother and toddler on the public road of Gempolan Village, Gurah District, Kediri Regency, East Java.

Head of the Law Enforcement Unit (Gakkum) of the Kediri Police, Iptu Budi Winariyanto, said that the incident began when the driver of the BD 1744 EJ car, Raja (20), a Nganjuk resident, drove from south to north and then swerved to the right.
