        "content": "<p>Busway and traffic congestion<\/p>\n<p>Tired of writing and talking about the subject, we have to<br>\nswallow what is forced down our throats. Not for the good of the<br>\nmajority of the citizens, but for the benefit of the few that are<br>\nengaged in this \"project\".<\/p>\n<p>The chaos however, will prevail, as long as the police cannot<br>\nhandle the existing misbehavior and non-existent discipline of<br>\npublic transportation drivers. Are the police scared of them?<br>\nThey look the other way when these drivers disobey regulations<br>\nand orders. The police should be consistent. The police should<br>\ntake away their driver's licenses and force them to sit the<br>\ndriving test again before letting them back on the roads again.<br>\nNever mind that the drivers will not be able to work for several<br>\ndays because of this. Because, if they followed the regulations,<br>\nthey would not have their licenses taken away! It is as simple as<br>\nthat. I travel regularly from Grogol to Kebayoran and it is a<br>\nnightmare! From Semanggi to Grogol it can take me 2 hours in 1st<br>\nand 2nd gear, ruining my clutch and wasting my gasoline. It's the<br>\nsame story if I take the alternative route via Roxi.<\/p>\n<p>Give the traffic-police a daily \"on the road\" bonus of Rp<br>\n20.000. -- that would mean for 25 working days in a month<br>\nadditional take home pay of Rp 500.000. -- which might spur the<br>\nofficers to do their jobs properly without just daring to catch<br>\ndrivers consisting of single women and old men for minor<br>\nmistakes, and otherwise playing \"blind\". The money is actually<br>\nthere and would be wisely spent on such a drive to enforce<br>\ndiscipline instead of splashing out billions on the Busway and<br>\nrestricting sole drivers, who nevertheless pay annual vehicle<br>\ntaxes and should be allowed to drive without restriction on the<br>\nmost convenient road they choose to their planned destinations.<\/p>\n<p>MRS.
