Trucks impounded in North Jakarta

At least seven trucks have been impounded by the North Jakarta
Traffic and Land Transportation Control Office after the vehicles
were discovered carrying soil during daylight hours on certain
roads.

Head of the office, Abubakar Ahmad, said here yesterday that
the trucks were seized on Jl. Plumpang.

The vehicles were heading for Cilincing, Abubakar said,
without mentioning the day when the raid was carried out.

Based on a local ruling, trucks loaded with soil are only
allowed to pass through certain roads from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. after
obtaining written permit from the North Jakarta mayor. (bsr)
