CALL FOR PROPOSAL
Situation
analysis of helmet use and pedestrian safety
in
Tasikmalaya Municipal, West Java Province, Indonesia
Background
Save
the Children (SC) is a leading, private child-focused non-governmental alliance
of 30 member organizations that works in 120 countries throughout the
world. Save the Children has worked in Indonesia since 1976 to promote
health and nutrition, education, child protection, livelihoods, and emergency
preparedness and response. Save the Children in Indonesia is changing for the
better. It has begun to build a national organisation that aims to be a
strong, local, and self-sustaining voice for children in Indonesia namely Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik
(YSTC). To this end, YSTC has been designated as a “Prospect Member of
Save the Children” which focuses on strengthening and localizing our voice for
children in strategic middle income countries. Working in twelve provinces, it has approximately 300
local professional staffs, and programming in Child Protection, Education,
Health and Nutrition, Disaster Risk Reduction, and Humanitarian Response.
Since
midst of 2014, YSTC has been interested in Road Side Safety topic relating to
high numbers of road traffic fatalities and injuries among children and youth
in the Indonesia. According to
data from WHO on Global Status Report on Road Safety 2015, traffic accidents
are the major cause of death that should be preventable. More than 1.2 million
people die and millions more are injured from mild to serious injuries every
year. Globally, accidents in traffic are the leading cause of death for young
people particularly those 14-30 years of age. Almost
half of those who die in road traffic crashes are pedestrians, cyclists and
users of motorized two-wheel vehicles, with this proportion being higher in
poorer countries. While
according to data of the Police Traffic Corps in Indonesia (Korlantas POLRI),
traffic accidents in 2012 was recorded as 109,038 cases with the number the
deaths at 25,131 people. Motorcycles were the vehicles most involved in
accidents followed by truck, car. The same data source in 2015, illustrates
that youth (particularly young men) and children are among the most involved in
road crashes. In a seven-month period in 2015 there were 7,079 students alone
out of a total 46,394 people involved in road accidents nationally.
A project called SELAMAT Project[1]
done by YSTC in 2015-2018 located in Bandung Municipal, West Java Province was
aimed to increase the safety of students through improve road safety
infrastructure and knowledge and practices to contribute
to reduce the number of road traffic fatalities and injuries among children and
youth. Partnering
with District Education Office (DEO), District
Traffic Police Office (DTPO) and District Transportation Ministry Office
(DTMO), and 30
schools in Bandung City as the piloting target, as well as some road safety community forum and related civil society
organization, the project shown 63% of primary and 48% of
secondary school students did not wear a helmet when being delivered to school
on a motorcycle.
On one hand, the information
showed by the project is useful, but it is still limited on school-based target
intervention. On the other hand, information on road safety at community based
level (community) and pedestrians are still lacking. In 2015, actual data of
accidents from Bandung Metro Police (Polrestabes Bandung) shows 23% of cases
involving pedestrians (157 out of 688 cases) in Bandung city only, means about
13 cases each month. While in 2018, at national level there is 7,930 cases in
April – September period (Korlantas/ National Traffic Police).
It is recommended by the result of
final evaluation of the project to escalate the program alike to community
based, as well as looking into the topic of pedestrian and family which needs
to be more paid attention in the roadside safety issue. In doing so, YSTC will conduct a situational
analysis as baseline study. The location of the study will be in Tasikmalaya
Municipal of West Java Province.
RATIONALE
On prevalences of accidents in Tasikmalaya Municipal
According to Basic Health Research (Ministry of Health, 2013), compared
to other cities in West Java, Tasikmalaya ranks number 1 for prevalence of
motor cycle crash injured, where young people age 15-24 experience more injured
compared to other ages. This research shows 56..6% prevalence of injured due to motor cycle is the second highest
after falling in Tasikmalaya Municipality of West
Java Province with the highest prevalence 68.5% occurred on the age range 15-24
years old, followed by age range 5-14 years old at 22.4%, 4.3% for age 1-4
years old, and 4.6% for age under one.
While based on sex disaggregation, prevalence for men (46.9%) is higher
than women (33.9%). However, there is not much different
prevalence between urban (39.2%) and rural (38.8%).
The research has also described
prevalence of helmet use for injured respondents. About 44.7% of injured
respondents using standard helmet with locking, 2.9% using standard helmet
without locking, while none of them using non-standard helmet, 44.7% not wearing
helmet. Comparison between men and women, shows that prevalence for woman
(53.4%) is higher than men (38.30%) in using standard helmet with locking.
While based on location, prevalence of not wearing helmet is higher in rural
(53.4%) than in urban (38.13%).
Based on age, the highest prevalence 67.7% of
not wearing helmet among occurred for children age 5 -14 years old, while 11.1%
among them wearing standard helmet locking. Among young adult age 15 -24, 48.4%
prevalence of not wearing helmet, while 43.9% wearing standard helmet with
locking. And, about 42.1% prevalence of not wearing helmet occurred for
children age 1-4 years old, while only 21.2% wearing standard helmet,
prevalence of wearing standard helmet with locking only reached 5.3%. The research
shows the younger the age, the prevalence of wearing standard helmet with locking
decreases. It also describes that most children age 1-14 who usually as pillion
riders do not wear helmet, and if they do, they do not wear standard helmet
with locking.
Although there is no
available data on accidents involving pedestrians, in 2016 BPS released data
from West Java Regional Police (Polda Jawa Barat) showing 45,971 numbers of
traffic accident casualties which 8,010 were students, and 24,243 casualties
were employee.
CONTEXT
On Pedestrians
Indonesian Law No. 22 of 2009 on
Road Transport and Traffic is the current supreme regulation on road safety.. It
regulates and defines all specific road infrastructures, transportation modes,
and users. Based on this law, not only road users with vehicles, but the rights
of the pedestrians also is reserved. This law states roads that use for public
transportation should be provided with road facility including facilities for
pedestrians. In relation to this, Indonesia Law No. 26 of 2007 on City Spatial
Planning stated that infrastructure for pedestrians should be accommodated in
the city planning.
Current situation, many of
sidewalks are infiltrated by the motor bikes aside of used by petty traders or
vehicles to park. In 2011, Koalisi Pejalan Kaki (Pedestrians Coalition) stated
that in Jakarta about 80% of sidewalks are in that condition. Moreover, only
20% of the sidewalks have ideal size, the remaining roads have smaller or even
do not provided with sidewalks.
On social cost
Traffic casualties in Indonesia
result in an annual social cost refers to as a ‘death budget’ (IRF Examiner, 2015). As many
Indonesians don’t have insurance, the burden of traffic accidents often falls
upon the family of the casualties. It estimates that up to 4.8% of Indonesia’s
GDP is directed towards road accidents. This takes into account Indonesia’s
classification of a ‘seriously injured person’ that differs greatly from the
international standard. Generally, if a person stays in hospital for more than
24 hours then they are classified as seriously injured, whereas in Indonesia a
‘minor injured person’ can stay in hospital for up to 30 days before they are
classified as seriously injured. This takes into account when calculating the
social costs of road accidents in Indonesia.
On Policy and
Documentation
The
documentation of data of road traffic accidents has changed since it was
started in 1970, with the creation of nationwide database launched in 2005. Despite
the critics that risen up of traffic accidents data duet to more intensive
police reporting rather than an actual rise in the figure, it alarmed that road
safety has more and more obvious. However, at district/ municipal level,
accessibility to such data is limited, even incomplete or unavailable.
On
Sectoral Governance
Governance
of a road implies sectoral management of different government bodies. Road
development and maintenance has been the duty of Public Work Office, while
traffic signs and transportation mode is in the hand of Transportation
Management Office, while traffic management is handle by the Traffic Police, in
case of accidents Travel/ Transportation Insurance Office (such as Jasa
Raharja) is involved. The situation of such complex structure surely need a
solid networking which doesn’t much occur in each of these offices
documentation.
On
Traffic, Vehicle Growth, and Supply Side
Indonesian motor vehicle growth
highly increased recent years. A study in 2017 (Jusuf et al, 2017) shows a
significant increase in the number of vehicles on the road from about 30
million vehicles in 2004 to 113 million vehicles in 2014. In other words, there
was a more than 200% increase of the total number of vehicles on the road. The
statistics also show that the annual growth rate of the total number of motor
vehicles in Indonesia maintained double digits from 2004 to 2014, while
significant growth each year was dominated by motorcycles and this number is
still growing until now. Based on these data it is not surprising that
motorcycles are the main contributor to traffic accident s and fatalities, due
to their popularity as the most effective vehicle to jump traffic jams. The
growth of vehicles of all modes may be contributed from growing domestic
consumption and aggressive promotional campaigns on the supply side. The 200%
increase in fatality rate per 100,000 population coincided with a 200% increase
in vehicle growth from 2004 to 2014 (Jusuf et al, 2017).
Another important aspect on
this issue is helmet supply-chain. As helmet is obligatory safety equipment for
motor riders to prevent risk in case of crash, it is necessary for the riders
to be aware of its safety standards.
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
In general, this study is expected to contribute to program and
advocacy planning on road safety topics of the YSTC strategic plan. This study
is also expected to give information on stakeholders in order to identify
allies, targets, and obstacles to advocacy; convene or join road safety network
OBJECTIVE

Sampling population
will be based on available data of average road users of the main road, if any.
It will be adjusted as the data acquired from the respective authority
(Transportation Management Office/ Public Work Office), thus the respondent
sample size.
The Global
Walkability Index (GWI)[2]
will be incorporated in the survey questionnaires. The GWI which incorporates
observation and quality assessment of the sidewalks by the respondents is
considered to be applicable as the methods for assessing pedestrian’s safety. The
GWI consist of indicators as follows:
a) Safety and
Security
i) Proportion of road accidents
that resulted in pedestrian fatalities
ii) Walking path modal conflict
iii) Crossing safety
iv) Perception of security from
crime
v) Quality of motorist behavior
b) Convenience and
Attractiveness
vi) Maintenance and cleanliness
of walking paths
vii) Existence and quality of
facilities for blind and disabled persons
viii) Amenities (e.g., coverage,
benches, public toilets)
ix) Permanent and temporary
obstacles on walking paths
x) Availability of crossings
along major roads
c) Policy Support
xi) Funding and resources devoted
to pedestrian planning
xii) Presence of relevant urban
design guidelines
xiii) Existence and enforcement
of relevant pedestrian safety laws and regulations
xiv) Degree of public outreach
for pedestrian and driving safety etiquette
