Bogor cites undocumented buses

BOGOR: Forty-three buses serving the Bogor-Jakarta route have been cited by the Bogor Traffic and Land Transportation Agency Office for not having the necessary vehicle documents.

The head of the Baranangsiang bus terminal, Hidayat AS, said on Friday document checks were conducted on 161 buses entering the terminal from Monday to Wednesday.

Hidayat said buses that did not have vehicle documents would not be allowed to operate.

He also said the drivers and bus company owners responsible for the cited buses would be required to appear in court next Thursday.

Hidayat expressed hope that the operation would help bring some sense of order to the bus terminal. -- JP
