    The Jakarta Police Department reported that between January and July 2008, traffic accidents in Jakarta caused 1499 people badly injured [15]. The literature also shows that most people who are killed in road crashes or road accidents in Indonesia are drivers [15]. Given the fact that there has been a huge number of road accidents in Indonesia, the understanding of road safety among the drivers across the country remain unclear. The aim of this research is to investigate the current practices, attitude, and perception towards road safety behaviour of drivers in Jakarta, Indonesia. This research used mix methods of qualitative by doing the semi-structured interviews and quantitative by using questionnaires. The nine interview participants were carefullychosen through three different criteria, bus drivers, car drivers, and motorcyclists. Questionnaires were also given to around a hundred people who drive for work in South Jakarta area and were analysed using SPSS software. The findings from the semi-structured interviews show that there is a similar perspective towards road safety behaviour among the drivers. They view road safety behaviour as an attitude in following the safety signs. The drivers also agreed that the biggest obstacle to act safely is the road condition in Jakarta that consists of holes. The result from the questionnaire presents that 71.03 percent of 128 drivers agreed that the road condition in Jakarta is not safe. In conclusion, providing road safety behaviour training should be considered by Police Department before releasing the driving license for drivers. Keywords: perception, attitude, behaviour, drivers, obstacle

    Background Previous surveys have indicated that a majority of Indonesian children have poor oral health. However, little detailed information is available on underlying causation and none that examine impacts of oral health on child self-esteem, school performance and perceived employability. The aim of this study was to determine levels of child oral health in primary school children in Indonesia, the prevalence of key causal factors; and, to determine relationships between oral health, self-esteem and school academic performance. Methods Cross-sectional epidemiological study in a sample (n = 984) of children aged 6–7 and 10–11 years old attending three public schools in Indonesia. A dental visual impact study was conducted, in which teachers reported their perceptions of the impact of child oral health on school academic performance. Oral health behaviors, self-esteem, and school performance were assessed. The children were clinically examined to measure dental caries and oral cleanliness. Results Teachers believe that children with visually poor oral health and impaired smiles are more likely to perform poorly at school, be socially excluded and have lower job prospects than their peers with visually good oral health and healthy smiles. The percentages of children with decayed teeth were 94 and 90% in the 6-7- and 10–11-year age groups, respectively. Families reported high levels of child consumption of sugar-containing foods and drinks; many had irregular use of fluoride toothpaste. Children with substantial plaque on their teeth achieved significantly lower levels of school performance than their peers with clean teeth. Significant associations were found between school performance and self-esteem for these children. Conclusions The study findings highlight the need for preventive care programs to improve the oral health of children in Indonesia and prospective determination of associations between child oral health; self-esteem and school academic performance
