Twelve people have died after being stuck in a three-day traffic jam in Indonesia at an intersection known as “Brexit”. Motorists posted pictures on social media showing cars stuck in miles of queues near the junction. More than 400 motorists have died on Indonesia’s roads during the holiday season, including those in the Brexit jam, Pramuraharjo said. “In terms of this ‘Brexit’ case, there’s been a total of 12 victims over different days,” he said. Locals refer to the toll gate at the intersection as Brexit, short for “Brebes exit”.
