Jasa Raharja has recorded a decline in road accident numbers during\nthe 2026 Eid al-Fitr Alert period, which took place from 13 to 22 March\n2026. This data indicates a positive trend in efforts to enhance\ntransportation safety, particularly during the homecoming and return\nflow periods.<\/p>\n
Based on data compiled with Korlantas Polri, the number of road\naccidents during that period was recorded at 2,119 incidents, down\napproximately 2% from the same period in the 2025 Eid al-Fitr Alert,\nwhich reached 2,179 incidents.<\/p>\n
In terms of victims, the total number of accident victims during the\n2026 Eid al-Fitr Alert period was recorded at 3,597 people, also\nexperiencing a 2% decline compared to the previous year, which reached\n3,684 people.<\/p>\n
A significant decline was seen in the number of fatalities, recorded\nat 190 people, down 28% from the previous year\u2019s 266 people. Meanwhile,\nthe number of injured victims was recorded at 3,407 people, relatively\nstable with a slight 0.3% decrease.<\/p>\n
Jasa Raharja\u2019s President Director, Muhammad Awaluddin, stated that\nthe decline in road accidents during the 2026 Eid al-Fitr period is the\nresult of a combination of several key factors.<\/p>\n
\u201cFirst, the strengthening of traffic engineering management carried\nout by Korlantas Polri, including more distributed homecoming flow\narrangements. The work-from-anywhere policy announced by the government\nwell in advance also had a significant impact in helping to even out\nthis year\u2019s homecoming flow,\u201d said Awaluddin in a written statement on\nTuesday (24\/3\/2026).<\/p>\n
Second, there was an increase in infrastructure readiness, both toll\nroads and arterial roads, as well as supporting facilities such as rest\nareas and Integrated Service Posts, which helped reduce driver fatigue\nduring homecoming trips.<\/p>\n
He said that third, the intensification of transportation safety\ncampaigns carried out by the Ministry of Transportation, Korlantas\nPolri, and all stakeholders, including Jasa Raharja, contributed to\nthis.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn addition, we also see an increase in public awareness to drive\nmore orderly and cautiously,\u201d Awaluddin explained.<\/p>\n
To date, road accidents are still dominated by two-wheeled vehicles\n(R2), generally caused by fatigue due to insufficient rest time, as well\nas low compliance in maintaining safe distances. This condition is a\nserious concern due to the high fatality risk it poses.<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore, BUMN and Danantara, together with 96 BUMNs including Jasa\nRaharja, continue to push for a reduction in R2 accident numbers through\nvarious preventive efforts, one of which is by diverting to safer public\ntransportation modes through the Free Homecoming programme,\u201d he\nclarified.<\/p>\n
He hopes that in the future, the public will become increasingly\naware of prioritising safety by choosing safer modes of transportation\nand remaining disciplined in driving.<\/p>\n
More than just numerical achievements, every reduction in fatalities\nreflects the presence of the state in protecting its citizens. Jasa\nRaharja believes that safety is a shared responsibility, and every life\nsaved is a tangible manifestation of humane, responsive, and sustainable\nservice.<\/p>\n
He stated that this is further strengthened through the\nimplementation of Zero Pending Claims, as an effort to ensure that every\ncompensation right for accident victims can be settled quickly,\naccurately, and without delay. Up to 22 March, Jasa Raharja has\ndisbursed compensation amounting to Rp 9.5 billion to 190 victims\/heirs,\nas a tangible manifestation of the state\u2019s presence when it is most\nneeded.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis spirit aligns with the commitment to deliver Comfortable\nHomecoming Together and Comfortable Eid Together, as efforts to provide\njourneys that are not only safe but also give a sense of security and\npeace to the entire community,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/jasa-raharja-records-decline-in-road-accident-figures-during-2026-eid-al-fitr-period-1774273876", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
