Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The West Java Regional Police confirmed that a viral social media post claiming police were conducting vehicle tax compliance raids on toll roads is fals.
The circulating image on X (formerly Twitter) displayed a traffic sign reading "Tax Raid Operation 2026 Samsat Jabar" along an alleged West Java toll road section, prompting widespread public concern.
The West Java Police Traffic Directorate debunked the claim, clarifying to Kompas.com that no such tax inspection operations exist and confirming that the image was digitally manipulated.
Unit 1 of the Padaleunyi Toll Road Patrol Unit verified that officers conducted no such tax enforcement operations, urging the public to verify information through official news outlets and police channels before sharing.
