Sukabumi – Dozens of motorbikes and a car with a loud or noisy exhaust were secured by the Polres Sukabumi Kota while carrying out enhanced routine activities (KRYD) on Wednesday, (26/7) evening to Thursday, (27/7) early morning at several points in Sukabumi City, West Java.
“A total of 52 motorbikes and one car were confiscated because they used a noisy muffler. The owner of the vehicle can take the vehicle back after changing the muffler and showing the motor vehicle certificate,” said Kapolres Sukabumi Kota AKBP Ari Setyawan Wibowo to the media crew, Thursday, (27/7) yesterday.
Separately, the Head of Public Relations of the Polres Sukabumi Kota, Iptu Astuti Setyaningsih added, KRYD is a preventive effort by the Polres Sukabumi Kota to create conduciveness of public order and security and provide a sense of security and comfort to the community.
Strict action against motorists whose vehicles use noisy exhausts is intended to provide a deterrent effect and comply with traffic regulations. The use of noisy mufflers not only disturbs the comfort of residents due to noise pollution generated from the exhaust, but also triggers security disturbances.
Dozens of motorized vehicles that were confiscated were then taken to the Sukabumi City Police Traffic Unit (Satpas) office. If you want to take it back then you have to replace the muffler first.
“Not only did the confiscation, the Sukabumi City Police Traffic Unit officers also gave fines on the spot to 17 motorcyclists who could not show their vehicle registration and were not wearing helmets,” continued Iptu Astuti.
He also said, KRYD would continue to be carried out by his party to maintain the conduciveness of the Kamtibmas from various security disturbances. For example, such as motorized hooligans or motorcycle gangs as well as cases of crime on the road, traffic accidents and others.
On the other hand, he also invites the public to participate in realizing social security and orderliness by providing information through the Report Pak Police-SIAP MAS hotline which can be accessed via WhatsApp at number 0811654110. Bembo
