inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Head of the Traffic Corps of the Indonesian National Police (INP), Inspector General of Police Agus Suryonugroho, emphasized that all police activities, particularly in the traffic sector, aim to improve the safety and order of road users.
According to him, the various programs implemented are not solely focused on enforcement, but also on fostering a culture of orderly traffic among the community.
Agus stated that law enforcement efforts must be managed appropriately to reduce the number of traffic violations and accidents. This way, security, safety, order, and smooth traffic flow can be achieved sustainably.
"All police activities are good, but it is all about how can we ensure that people obey the traffic law and ensure that the number of violations, including fatalities, can decrease," said Agus in his statement, Monday (6/8/2026).
According to him, the INP Traffic Corps continues to optimize the use of technology through Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement (ETLE). The prepared law enforcement scheme prioritizes an electronic approach over conventional enforcement, in line with the transformation of services and law enforcement towards a more modern and transparent approach.
"So, the plan is to issue 30% of tickets and 60% of the time through ETLE. We have already told the public about this, and therefore, we expect the public to be more proactive. We are not proud of law enforcement, but rather, we embrace the community, engage with the community. Therefore, we hope that people are more aware of the traffic law for the sake of safety," said Agus Suryonugroho.
He also stated that his unit is open to various input and criticism from the public. He believes that public participation is a crucial part of maintaining order and traffic safety.
"We have respect and always listen to the public. We are not against criticism. We will be open to it, however, it is important to note that all police activities are in the interests of maintaining public order and security, ensuring safety and order on the roads," he emphasized.
