        "summary": "A tragic collision between a long-distance train and a commuter train at Bekasi Timur Station, killing 14 people, was reportedly triggered by a Green SM taxi becoming stuck on the tracks, leading to severe damage to the vehicle and the derailing of another train. The Ministry of Transportation has announced evaluations of Green SM taxi operations and the urgent need for double-double tracks and electrification at the station to prevent future incidents on the shared rail line.

        "content": "<p>A train accident involving a long-distance train and a commuter train\nat Bekasi Timur Station in Bekasi City, which killed 14 people, is\nbelieved to have been initially triggered by a Green SM taxi becoming\nstuck. Here is the scene of the taxi wreckage.<\/p>\n<p>Observations by detikcom at the crossing near Bekasi Timur Station on\nTuesday (28\/4\/2026) showed the wreckage of the taxi with code CT11271\nlocated at the edge of the tracks. The turquoise green taxi was severely\ncrumpled.<\/p>\n<p>The front left door of the taxi was dented. Its side mirror appeared\nto be hanging with most of the glass broken.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the front windscreen of the taxi had a small cracked\nsection. Several people were inspecting the taxi wreckage. Many were\nlooking inside the taxi.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) has spoken out. Kemenhub is\nopening the possibility of evaluating Green SM taxi operations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery time an accident occurs, we will definitely conduct an\nevaluation so that we can learn from what happened and improve in the\nfuture,\u201d said Transport Minister Dudy Purwagandhi during a press\nconference at Bekasi Station on Tuesday (28\/4\/2026). Dudy was responding\nto questions about whether there would be an evaluation of Green SM\ntaxis.<\/p>\n<p>Kemenhub will also evaluate the need for double-double tracks at\nBekasi Timur Station. It is known that currently, long-distance trains\nand commuter trains pass on the same track at Bekasi Timur Station.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, as part of our evaluation, the double-double track is\nincluded, as well as electrification,\u201d he continued. He was responding\nto questions about the urgency of double-double tracks at Bekasi Timur\nStation.<\/p>\n<p>The accident occurred on Monday (27\/4) night. The total number of\nfatalities from the accident was 14 people. In addition, there were 84\npeople injured.<\/p>\n<p>The accident happened when the commuter train that was hit was\nstopped because another commuter train was blocked by the taxi at the\ncrossing at Bekasi Timur Station. The hard collision caused the women\u2019s\ncarriage at the rear to be torn open and penetrated by the Argo Bromo\ntrain.<\/p>\n<p>The evacuation process for the train accident victims has been\ncompleted. All the evacuated victims were female.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c100 percent of those we evacuated (victims) are women,\u201d said\nBasarnas Head Major General TNI M Syafii.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that the evacuation process was completed at 08.00 WIB\nearlier. All SAR teams have also been withdrawn.<\/p>\n<p>Syafii stated that if any body parts of victims are found during the\ntrain wreckage cleanup process, his side will take action according to\nprocedure.<\/p>",
