Jakarta Bus Way, Is it really an exclusive lane?

The fact is every space belongs to anybody on the street regardless of what is considered exclusiveness. the separator is only an ornament to depict a typical city landscape. So the rule is put somewhere in the air.

What is so called Busway in Jakarta functions only when people have already come to their senses. The hectic condition makes it a short cut for speed demon, kings of the street like Kopaja and Metro Mini (city buses) and motorcycles to show off their talent.

Lucky you to be just in time getting on the bus and getting to your destination and continuing to another spot without paying back. However, Jakarta bus way gives you an uncertainty due to the unpredictable traffic before one bus reaches the shelter at where you are standing there waiting in line impatiently.

The idea of setting the lane heading the opposite direction will create another problem. Not only the Jakarta Busway gets more and more motorists to hate it, but also upsets the protesters or demonstrators to rally on the lane hiring a bus to reach the official office.

Jakarta needs more commuter train tracks or what has been waiting for: MRT. Bus way turns out to be not effective enough to solve the problem of traffic jam in Jakarta, unless the lane is carpeted with the one belonging to Aladdin jinn, and that doesn't make sense.
