our comments on the idea from the Bogor and Bandung city governments to ban cars carrying B (Jakarta) license plates, as the presence of such cars in the two cities worsens traffic congestion on weekends:
It's easy. Just do as the police or military frequently do and bring multiple license plates.

I don't agree with the idea because people from Jakarta spend a lot of money buying local products and it will help the local economy grow faster.
I suggest local policymakers don't rush into making the decision as it will just create a new problem. Please don't block people from Jakarta to come to your cities.

It's pretty stupid way of reducing traffic congestion. Shopkeepers who earn millions from weekend tourism will not be happy.

So car owners will be asked to park their vehicles on the toll road and all passengers will have to change to ojek (motorcycle taxis) to enter your cities?

What if the Jakarta administration retaliates and bans F (Bogor) license-plate cars from entering Jakarta on weekdays?
Imagine all those who commute to Jakarta for work every day.

I absolutely agree with the cities of Bogor and Bandung banning cars with Jakarta license plates and Jakarta banning cars with Bandung and Bogor license-plates. Isn't this fair?

The Semarang administration tried a similar rule decades ago and it failed dismally.

Banning these cars is a way for local governments to ease the traffic gridlock.
