Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "A Wife in India Asked For a Divorce Because Her Husband Rarely Bathed", "4 Big Companies That Went Bankrupt in Indonesia", you may read also "5 Most Bizarre Court Cases in US History" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Amazing, Public Road Transformed Into Garage'.

An interesting case occurred in South Sulawesi, a resident's car garage was built on half of a public road. The resident's house is located on Rappokalling Raya Street, Lorong Anda, Tammua Village, Tallo District. The 2-story house is right next to the Reformation Toll Road. The parking lot is made of an iron frame with a 3 meter high spandex roof. An iron fence was built around half of the road to the left of the house.[1]

As a result of this parking, the road with a width of around 4 meters can only be passed by motorbike riders. Meanwhile, cars cannot pass, even though this road is connected to the Rappokalling Raya axis road. Tallo Police Chief Commissioner Syamsuardi said that the parking owner admitted that he had been using half of the road for 6 years. Agus relaxed about using public facilities on the grounds that he had never been reprimanded so far.[2]

The Sector Police Chief together with the Tammua Village Head, Binmas and Babinsa have gone to the location to explain to the owner that the parking lot has used the road which is a public facility. The parking lot also disturbs road users because cars cannot pass. "I said I'm sorry, because it has gone viral, can we dismantle it? If you want to do it voluntarily, please do so. We explained that we are using this road, a public facility," he said.[3]

There are regulations that state that anyone who commits an act that disrupts the function of the road within the useful space of the road will be subject to sanctions. This is stated in Law Number 38 of 2004 concerning Roads, Article 63 Paragraph 1.[4] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
