EFEKTIVITAS PENERAPAN PERATURAN WALIKOTA SURABAYA NOMOR 102 TAHUN 2023 DALAM UPAYA MENGURANGI PELANGGARAN MOBIL BARANG OVER DIMENSION DI UPTD PENGUJIAN KENDARAAN BERMOTOR TANDES

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of Surabaya Mayor Regulation Number 102 of 2023 in reducing over-dimension violations of goods vehicles in Surabaya, particularly at the Tandes Motor Vehicle Testing Unit (UPTD). Over-dimension issues in freight vehicles pose a serious threat to traffic safety and road infrastructure sustainability. The regulation governs the technical inspection procedures that require all vehicles to meet roadworthiness and dimensional standards as stipulated by the law.

This research employs an empirical legal approach using qualitative methods, including interviews, observations, and document studies. The findings show that vehicle inspections have been carried out in accordance with standard procedures, and there is an increasing awareness among vehicle owners regarding dimensional regulations. The number of vehicles failing due to over-dimension has decreased annually. However, the effectiveness of the regulation remains limited to the testing area due to insufficient road monitoring and weak inter-agency coordination.

The study recommends strengthening inter-agency collaboration, developing integrated digital monitoring systems, enhancing public outreach and education, and enforcing stricter sanctions for repeated violations. While the implementation of Mayor Regulation No. 102 of 2023 is considered procedurally effective, further optimization is needed across sectors to fully achieve the objectives of controlling over-dimensioned freight vehicles.
