Tribunnews.comA Mayasari Bhakti bus caused multiple crashes early this morning near the Kampung Rambutan bus terminal, claiming one life and severely injuring another, a traffic police officer said on Monday.
“The bus suddenly hit a taxi and then bumped into another taxi. The bus didn’t stop, but went on to hit a motorbike, a street vendor’s cart and a public minivan. The minivan subsequently hit another motorbike,” Adj. Sr. Comr. Sudharsono said as quoted by tempo.co.
He said the police were trying to determine the original cause of the accident.
“We have detained the bus driver and are gleaning information from him,” he said.
Just a day before, a Mayasari bus plying the Kampung Rambutan-Kalideres route hit a Transjakarta bus at the Slipi Jaya, West Jakarta, bus stop. The Mayasari, which entered the busway lane, rammed the bus from behind.
