Cancellation of motorcycle ban in Jakarta

Motorists passing on Mh. Thamrin protocol road, Central Jakarta, on Wednesday, January 10, 2018. Motorcyclists in Jakarta, can re-cross the protocol road of Mh Thamrin and the Medan Merdeka Barat following a Supreme Court ruling that granted the petition for judicial review of two citizens, Yuliansah and Diki, who felt harmed by the motorcycle banning regulations to cross the protocol road MH. Thamrin and Medan Merdeka Barat, by canceling the regulation. For information, the banning rules passed for motorcyclists were made during the administration of Jakarta, Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok) in December, 2014. The regulation was made with the reason to reduce congestion and reduce the number of accidents in the center of Jakarta Capital. However, some people think the regulation is contrary to the value of justice, and tends to be discriminatory for motorcyclists who are mostly lower middle class. (Photo by Aditya Irawan/NurPhoto)
