Four people, including two children, have been killed after a train collided with a car in Indonesia’s Central Java province, police said on Friday.
Authorities said the driver failed to notice the approaching train at a level crossing due to heavy fog, leading to the collision.
A police traffic officer, Eko Ari Kisworo, said the impact sent the vehicle, carrying nine occupants, about 20 metres before it struck a pole and overturned into a rice field.
He added that four passengers, among them a two-year-old girl and a 10-year-old child, died in the crash, while the driver and other occupants sustained injuries.
The incident occurred just days after a separate train accident near Jakarta, where a long-distance train struck a stationary commuter carriage, killing 16 women and injuring dozens.
Following that earlier crash, President Prabowo Subianto attributed the tragedy to unsafe level crossings and directed authorities to upgrade them nationwide with improved safety measures.
Transport accidents remain relatively frequent in Indonesia, where ageing infrastructure and poor maintenance have contributed to repeated incidents in recent years.
