inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Indonesian National Police (INP) Traffic Corps Chief Inspector General Agus Suryo Nugroho appealed to the public who will go back to their hometown during the 2025 Eid holiday to prepare themselves well and comply with the existing appeals.

He also reminded the public to prioritize health if they want to travel long distances to their hometowns.

"We appeal to travelers, even though it is still a month away, to continue maintaining your health. When going on a long journey, health is the most important thing," said Traffic Corps Chief on Thursday (2/27/2025).

Prospective travelers who want to use private vehicles are also expected to check the condition of the vehicle. Not only that, the balance of the toll card or e-toll must also be ensured to be sufficient to avoid long queues.

Agus also appealed to drivers who have traveled far, to rest at least every 2.5 hours. This aims to ensure that travelers arrive at their destination safely and healthily.

"Make sure that your vehicle is safe, make sure the engine and brakes of your vehicle used for homecoming properly are safe. Also make sure that every 2.5 hours in your journey, please take a rest," said Agus.

He also ensured that his staff and stakeholders were ready to implement Operation Ketupat 2025 as his party had prepared scenarios for all situations, including emergency situations.

The INP will carry out Operation Ketupat 2025 from March 26, 2025 to April 8, 2025. Agus also instructed his staff to focus on securing the homecoming and return flows for Eid 2025 to ensure safe, comfortable and smooth traffic.
