"As for the BAP citations, some were processed by the police in line with existing legal provisions," he noted.

Further, April was the peak month for enforcement, totaling 425 cases. Specifically, these comprised the tire deflation of 99 motorbikes and 12 cars, 47 instances of towing with warning letters, 11 citation-based tows by Dishub, 141 inspection reports (BAP) issued by the Transportation Agency, and 115 penalties against the public transportation.

"The enforcement figures for the preceding months were recorded as follows: 275 cases in January, 282 in February, 124 in March, and 231 in May," he explained.

Consequently, the agency will continue to intensify surveillance and enforcement at several hotspots for traffic violations, including congested zones and locations frequently used for illegal parking.

"We will continue to step up monitoring at several violation-prone points in South Jakarta, including high-traffic areas and illegal parking sites," he added.

So, the public is urged to strictly adhere to traffic laws for the sake of maintaining collective safety, order, and comfort, especially in the use of social and public amenities.

"We hope that the measures taken provide a deterrent effect, fostering a more orderly, tidy, and comfortable environment in South Jakarta for every road user," he asserted.
