Korlantas Polri Proposes Elimination Of Vehicle Transfer Fees, Here's The Reason

JAKARTA - The Traffic Corps (Korlantas) of the National Police has proposed eliminating fees in the process of changing the name of motorized vehicles (BBN2). The goal, so that the vehicle data in accordance with the owner.

"We are proposing to the regional government whether or not we should propose BBN2, why not just delete it," said the Director of Regional Traffic Police of the National Police Brigadier General Yusri Yunus when contacted, Friday, July 15.

The abolition of BBN2 fees is proposed because there are still many vehicle owners who use other people's identities for their vehicle data.

For example, someone who buys a car from another person will not change his ownership data. Thus, the vehicle owner's data is still in the name of the seller.

In fact, according to him, the buyer has an obligation to change the ownership data of the vehicle. Moreover, in many cases car owners are reluctant to change ownership data because it is quite expensive.

"Paying a name transfer fee is expensive. In the end, many people don't want to pay taxes, they don't want to change their name," said Yusri.

In fact, not changing the vehicle ownership data also leads to E-TLE action. Because, when a traffic violation occurs, it is not the identity of the owner who will be recorded as the perpetrator. Rather, the seller or previous owner of the vehicle.

"The problem with the police is that now we have received an E-TLE ticket," he said.

However, said Yusri, the abolition of BBN2 costs is still a proposal. So, for certainty whether it is implemented or not depends on the policies of each local government.

"Proposing for our common good, so that the data is good in single data," said Yusri.
