The increasing incidence of traffic accidents involving minors in Pontianak City presents a legal dilemma between formal law enforcement under the Road Traffic and Transportation Law and the child protection mandate requiring diversion under the Juvenile Criminal Justice System Law. This study aims to analyze the implementation of diversion mechanisms, examine the obstacles faced by investigators in applying restorative justice at the Pontianak City Police, and formulate an ideal resolution model for traffic accident cases involving child offenders. Employing a socio-legal research method with statutory, conceptual, and empirical case approaches, the findings indicate that although diversion is mandatory for offenses punishable by less than seven years of imprisonment, including negligent traffic offenses under Article 310 of the Road Traffic and Transportation Law, its implementation at the Pontianak City Police remains constrained by resistance from victims' families, limited understanding among law enforcement officers, and inadequate child-friendly facilities. The study concludes that optimizing diversion requires strengthened police discretion in coordination with the Correctional Center (BAPAS). It recommends that the Traffic Unit and the Women and Children Protection Unit of the Pontianak City Police strengthen mediation standard operating procedures oriented toward the best interests of the child.
