Jakarta –
The traffic jam occurred in the Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) area, Central Jakarta, after concert spectators BLACKPINK disband. Concert goers are worried they won’t be able to get an online taxi to go home due to the traffic jam.
“Already ordered now, there may be a delay because waiting 10 minutes has not arrived,” said a spectator from Yogyakarta named Afif (25) when met by detik.com at the location, Sunday (12/3/2023).
Nevertheless, Afif understands this. He will also keep waiting until the online taxi driver arrives.
“Understandably the concert too, must be jammed,” he said.
In line with Afif, a spectator from Tangerang named Meta (20) is also worried that he will not be able to find a driver following the traffic jams that have occurred in the GBK area.
“This is a direct message, for fear of running out first,” he said.
He himself intends to go home rollicking. However, one of his friends was still in the concert area.
“I’m crowded, there are still friends in the palace, so I’m waiting for this,” he added.
