Tragically, accidents caused by human error. The driver was unconscious due to the influence of narcotics and illicit drugs (drugs). He was not able to control the steering wheel when the car drove at high speed. As a result, the public also condemned Afriani driving after consuming drugs and alcohol (alcohol).

However, rice has become porridge, these events can no longer be returned to its origin.
