Purwantono, said this change aims to make it easier for road users to seek emergency assistance. “The 133 number will make it easier for road users experiencing emergency conditions to immediately contact the assistance service,” said Rivan in his official statement. “In addition, this number is also easier to remember because of its unique digits. With a three-digit number, the service becomes more responsive and facilitates road users in accessing information, reporting emergency incidents, or requesting assistance from on-site officers,” added Rivan.
