This is part of conditioning, thus vehicles comply with the rules

The Kampung Rambutan Bus Terminal, Ciracas, East Jakarta has noted that as many as 185 AKAP buses have undergone ramp checks ahead of Idul Fitri exodus from Monday (3/31) to Sunday (4/9).

According to Yulza Ramadoni, Head of Kampung Rambutan Terminal, a ramp check is an effort to ensure the proper operation of the vehicle. It is planned that the test will be carried out until April 13.

"This is part of conditioning, thus vehicles comply with the rules and are roadworthy during mudik and returning flow later," he said, Monday (4/10).

He explained the ramp checks carried out by officers ranging from vehicle administration such as Control Cards (KP) to Vehicle Test Certificates (STUK), and Vehicle Number Certificates (STNK) to driver's licenses (SIM).

Then a physical inspection of the vehicle such as the condition of the glass, wipers, tires, steering wheel, brakes, and equipment in the vehicle such as a portable fire extinguisher (APAR) and a glass breaker. Then, check the vehicle's emergency exit to ensure it is in good working condition.

During the ramp checks period, vehicles that failed the ramp checks still have the opportunity to make repairs.

However, when the ramp check is held from Friday (4/14) to Tuesday (5/2), those that do not comply with the regulations or are not operationally feasible will be subject to strict sanctions.

"Hopefully when entering the terminal, the administration must be complete and in proper condition with completeness according to the regulations," he asserted.
