Inp.polri.go.id - Bogor. The Ciawi Toll Gate in Bogor, West Java, has reopened following a fatal crash on Tuesday night, authorities confirmed.

“The toll gate is now open, but two lanes remain closed due to the damage,” said Senior Inspector Yudiono, the Bogor Sub-regional Police Head of Traffic Unit, in an update early Wednesday (5/2/2025).

All vehicles involved have been cleared from the scene, and the victims were rushed to Ciawi Regional General Hospital for treatment, according to antaranews.com.

The deadly accident claimed eight lives and left 11 others injured, reportedly caused by a truck’s brake failure. The truck driver is still unconscious.

“The truck, carrying gallon bottles, appears to have experienced brake failure, crashing into a line of vehicles at the toll booth. Three cars were completely destroyed by fire, and three others sustained heavy damage,” said Chief Eko.

The incident on Tuesday evening involved six cars, with three completely burned and three severely damaged. The truck, traveling from Ciawi to Jakarta, lost control as it approached the toll gate.
