Two killed on Jagorawi tollroad
BOGOR: Two people were killed instantly and another wounded in
a traffic accident that took place on the Jagorawi tollroad in
Cimahpar, Bogor regency, on Tuesday morning.
Those who died were a 55-year-old passenger of a public
minivan and the driver's assistant, while the driver was injured.
The minivan was on its way from the Kramat Jati wholesale
market in East Jakarta to Garut, West Java, when it suddenly hit
the truck in front, at 3:10 a.m., according to an official of
Jasa Marga, the toll operator.
The minivan driver lost control of the vehicle and it skidded
to the right. An oil tanker traveling at high speed immediately
hit the minivan from behind.
Accidents frequently occur on the Jagorawi tollroad. Last
week, two people were killed in a multiple collision that
involved five vehicles. -- JP
