TEMPO.CO, Cirebon - Traffic is quite slow at the non-toll segment of the Pantura highway a day before the eve of Eid. As a result, motorcycles are going on high speed.
The road from Pamanukan to Cirebon is dominated by travelers on motorcycles. The empty road prompts them to speed up, and road users are advised to be careful of speeding bikes. From Tegalkarang to the Palimanan crossroads, Cirebon, the lack of roadblocks make bikers ride on the opposite lane.
"I'm afraid, so I just walk on the edge," said Asep, a Palimanan resident on a homecoming trip to Cirebon.
Meanwhile, Cirebon City Traffic Police officer Galih Raditya admitted that travelers on bike tend to ride at a fairly high speed. "It's very dangerous," Galih said.
