A Trailer Truck Loaded with Iron Pipes Overturned on the Jambi-Riau Cross
A trailer truck loaded with iron pipes overturned on the Jambi-Riau cross, to be precise in Suban, Batang Asam District, West Tanjung Jabung Regency, Friday (01/07/2022) early morning.
As a result, traffic from Jambi to Riau or vice versa is badly jammed, because four-wheeled vehicles cannot pass because trailer trucks are blocking the road.
"It's been almost an hour of traffic jam, we can't pass because the truck is in the middle of the road," said Firza, a car driver from Riau heading to Jambi.
Observations at the location, a trailer truck loaded with iron pipes crossed right in the middle of the incline. The trailer truck fills the entire road, so there is no gap for vehicles to pass. Traffic police also appear to have been on the scene.
“We have been here for almost an hour, there is no sign of this truck being towed. We might sleep here,” said Andi another driver.
Until this news was published at 01.46 WIB, the traffic jam at the location was getting worse, and no attempt was made to evacuate the overturned trailer truck crossing the road.(*)
