PEKALONGAN - The Pekalongan Police Satlantas immediately helped repair a pothole on Jalan Raya Bojong, Pekalongan Regency.
Head of Traffic Police of Pekalongan Police, AKP Rony Hidayat, said this step was taken because the condition of the potholes was one of the main risk factors for traffic accidents, especially when entering the rainy season.
"We immediately went down to help the officers so that the potholes could be quickly covered. This has a direct impact on traffic safety, so that there are no accidents in the area due to drivers suddenly avoiding holes," he explained.
This road patching action is also a quick response from the police to citizen complaints. AKP Rony said that his party received many complaints related to road damage due to high rainfall intensity in the Pekalongan area.
"We carry out this activity and in the future will continue to coordinate with related parties (DPU). Considering the complaints of the public regarding the many potholes in this rainy season, which of course are very dangerous for safety in traffic," added AKP Rony.
Through a combination of educational socialization and preventive steps in the field, the Pekalongan Police Satlantas hopes that the fatality rate of accidents can be suppressed. The police also appeal to residents to always be alert when driving in the midst of extreme weather conditions and slippery roads.
