Upaya Polisi Lalu Lintas Polres Tanjung Jabung Barat dalam Restorasi Fungsi Helm

Abstract

Traffic violations that do not use helmets at the Tanjung Jabung Barat Police are increasing. The West Tanjung Jabung Police have taken countermeasures, one of which is the enforcement of Law No. 22 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation. Therefore, this type of research is empirical juridical research, carried out directly in the field and the data sources are research and literature so that the approach is a sociology of law approach. Data collection techniques used interviews and data analysis and were carried out qualitatively. The results of the study are the efforts of the Traffic Police in reducing the impact caused by not using helmets in traffic accidents in the jurisdiction of the Tanjung Jabung Barat Police, namely preventive and repressive efforts. Preventive efforts are just socialization that is carried out directly to the community, schools and employee agencies. In addition, using mass media such as radio, newspapers and banners. Meanwhile, repressive efforts are in the form of conducting routine raids every day to find out the use of standard helmets and the obstacles faced such as there is no public awareness of the use of motorbikes and there are still alternative roads so that motorbike violators can pass through the raids conducted by the Tanjung Jabung Traffic Police.
