However, these efforts have not been able to reduce the number of private vehicle ownership in DKI JakartaThis study adopted qualitative research approach by utilizing the literature study methodology. The results shows that the high rate of private vehicle ownership in DKI Jakarta is caused by several factors: first, there are still loopholes for committing violations in every policy implemented by the DKI Jakarta government. Second, that private vehicle ownership is not just a means of transportation, but also a way of showing social class in people's lives.
