JAKARTA - I don't know how many times social media was shocked by the video of residents arguing in DKI Jakarta where public roads are used by private parking lots or the story of a commotion between neighbors when one neighbor parks a car carelessly in front of another neighbor's house because the garage doesn't fit.

Most recently, citing the NTMC Polri, Monday, April 10, 2023, the Directorate of Traffic (Ditlantas) of the Polda Metro Jaya is currently reviewing the discourse on garage ownership as a condition for extending the validity period of STNK and SIM for car owners.

"Yes, we will discuss it with the Transportation Agency in the form of a proposal," said Director of Traffic and Traffic of the Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Latif Usman.

Previously, this discourse was first rolled out by the DKI Transportation Agency (Dishub). Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, said that every car owner who lives in DKI must have a garage. The Transportation Agency can take action against car owners who parked carelessly because they do not have a garage.

Syafrin explained that the provisions for car owners to have a garage are listed in Regional Regulation Number 5 of 2014 concerning Transportation.

And as reported by VOI, the Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency (Dishub) Syafrin Liputo said that his party is currently discussing the framework for the discourse on garage ownership for car owners in the capital city as a condition for extending the validity period of STNK and SIM.

"The concept framework for the model is still being discussed because the issuance of the STNK is the domain of the police," said Syafrin in the Bappeda Pattern Room, Blok G Floor, DKI Jakarta City Hall, Monday, April 10.

Syafrin also appealed to car owners to immediately have a garage and no longer park their cars in public facilities. Moreover, car owners will be asked for a certificate as a sign that they have a garage that can be obtained from the kelurahan by adjusting their domicile. Then, the letter was handed over when taking care of the STNK at Samsat.

"The existing roads are provided for public facilities. The facilities are provided for use according to their designation for vehicle lanes, not for parking." he added.

Syafrin said that if residents were disturbed by the car parked on residential roads, they could report this problem through the provided canal.
