Bus passenger insurance

Bus passenger insurance

From Kompas

Do Rp 700 city-bus tickets include Jasa Raharja insurance cover? One day I was on a Bianglala No.66 city bus, license-plate number B 7103 NL. The bus' driver was being reckless, suddenly jolting the vehicle when braking or changing gears. At one stage, a number of standing passengers lost their footings and fell into heaps. My forehead was seriously injured.

I asked the driver for some money to cover medical expenses. He said he had just started his shift and did not have any money for me. This was 2:30 p.m..

Who is responsible for accidents on city buses when drivers clearly violate safety regulations? The authorities must give the public this much needed information.
