Too many people, too few buses

From Bisnis Indonesia

A Police officer was quoted as saying: "The bus must pick up no more passengers than its capacity allows, so that the bus door can be closed." I view this as an appropriate statement.

But why aren't the police taking action against bus drivers who continue overloading their buses?

Clearly, the demand for transportation is greater than the number of buses serving the public.

Under these circumstances it is not easy to enforce the regulation that requires that bus doors be closed.
