In terms of efforts to overcome illegal racing behaviour which is very troubling to the community, law enforcement officers in this case the traffic police take preventive and repressive measures in tackling illegal racing actions. The implementation of law enforcement, especially the police, is obliged to maintain public order in order to create security and comfort in traffic. And providing a sense of security to every motorized vehicle driver, law enforcement is carried out by means of repressive efforts, which is an effort to combat illegal racing actions conceptually which was taken after the occurrence of the Illegal Racing Action. The sanction given is detention in accordance with Law No. 22 of 2009 and given a penalty in accordance with article 309, the sanction is a fine of Rp. 3,000,000.00, for a deterrent effect the police will hold the vehicle for 2 months.
