Four people were injured after a bus overturned on the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road on Saturday.

Bekasi traffic police chief Comr. Heri Ompusungu said that the bus carrying 50 passengers overturned at 7:30 a.m. Since then, the bus had been removed from the accident scene and the four injured passengers were taken to the Hermina Hospital in the Bekasi regency, West Java, according to tempo.co.

"The victims '€” Two children and two adults '€” suffered from injuries due to the impact," he said.

The passengers from Wangon, Central Java were headed to Kalideres, West Jakarta. 

Heri said that the bus had to stop abruptly as a silver minibus overtook it.

The accident caused a five kilometer traffic jam on the toll road toward Jakarta. (fss)
