A very unpleasant incident occurred at a railroad crossing on Jalan Kalibodri, Kaliwungu, Kendal Regency, Central Java. A motorcyclist who was desperate to pass even though the railroad crossing was closed, was finally hit by the Argo Sindoro train (KA), Semarang-Jakarta relation, Saturday.
Public Relations Manager of PT KAI Daop 4 Semarang Ixfan Hendri Wintoko said the motorcycle rider was suspected of being desperate to pass even though the crossing was closed.
"Masinists have also honked their horns to warn the motorist, but collisions are inevitable," said Ixfan, quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, April 29.
The impact of the accident, he continued, was that both the motorbike and the locomotive that pulled the Argo Sindoro train series were damaged.
"Locomotives were damaged in the air pipe, so they could not continue their journey," he explained, quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, April 29.
As a result, Argo Sindoro's train trip was disrupted because a locomotive had to be changed. The train bound for Jakarta was delayed by about 119 minutes.
Meanwhile, the motorcyclist who caused the accident has been handled by the local police.
Ixfan said PT KAI would seek compensation from the motorcyclist for the damage and delays in train travel.
