JAVA - Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo asked the Ministry of Transportation to prioritize socialization before taking action against violators of the over-dimensional, over-loading (ODOL) policy.

"This policy needs to be socialized so that everyone can agree. Before it is enforced, it would be very good if socialization was prioritized so that the public could understand when the enforcement would be carried out so that later it would not cause a 'commotion'," he said in Semarang, Antara, Wednesday, February 23.

According to Ganjar, the socialization is not only aimed at truck drivers, but the main target is the truck entrepreneurs themselves. This is because truck owners usually instruct drivers to load goods beyond the specified dimensions and load limits.

This mutual agreement, continued Ganjar, is indeed very important because transportation that exceeds the dimensions and cargo limits also has a high risk of danger, namely damaging roads and endangering other road users.

"Not only ODOL trucks on the highway, mining trucks transporting excavation C have also crushed the roads. Who is responsible for that?" he said.

Therefore, Ganjar believes that there must be a mutual agreement regarding the policy of banning ODOL trucks and that all parties must understand each other for the common good.

"So it is important to have a dialogue, not only drivers but also truck owners. Law enforcers also need to sit down together so they don't take action in the first place before they are all socialized," he said.

The number one person in Central Java admitted that he had communicated with a number of truck drivers and received input from them.

"Yesterday there was input, some friends also communicated directly with me. Indeed, there were some notes given regarding the policy of banning ODOL trucks," said Ganjar.
