KAUAI, HI – Kauai police said a bicycle rider was injured in a collision with a vehicle last week, reports Hawaii News Now.

The accident took place Thursday morning on Nalo Road near Ho’one Road in Poipu. Investigators said the bicyclist, a 70-year-old man, was going south on Nalo Road at about 6:35 a.m. The man attempted to turn right onto Ho’one Road, overtook a vehicle near the stop sign, and collided with an eastbound Toyota Tacoma driven by a 24-year-old man.

The bicycle rider was hospitalized in critical condition. Police were trying to determine whether impairment was a contributing factor in the incident, though speed was not believed to have been a factor.

The area near the scene was blocked off to traffic for about two hours for the police investigation.

An impressive Attorney. Mr. Honda was referred to me as a good lawyer. I have been represented by lawyers in the past 35 years since my husband was killed and I viewed Mr. Honda as a good attorney but since the lawyer on the opposing side was aggressive and almost intimidating as I sat by Mr. Honda's side I did not have positive or negative feelings. When it became Mr. Honda's turn to ask questions of the opposite party, his demeanor changed. Initially he did not appear to be listening intensely yet he remembered every point and in a concise, skilled and competent manner he discredited every important factor in the case. He was creative and exuded a winning energy that really amazed and surprised me. He was great and very impressive and I would very highly recommend him to everyone.

After I had a particularly painful crash while riding my bike in Hawaii, resulting in a visit to the ER, I reached out to Glenn to work on my case. Glenn was thorough and worked diligently to get me a fair settlement. Highly recommended! - Mike Zagorski (Masters World Champion/4x US National Champion Cyclist)

Compassionate & Aggressive Representation. I was at a stop light when I was hit from behind by someone who was not paying attention. In addition to the damages to my car I was injured. The insurance company overwhelmed me with paperwork. It was an extremely difficult time for me. I was referred to Mr. Honda by a friend. Mr. Honda was only concerned about me and my injuries. He told me to concentrate on getting better and not to worry about anything else. It was such a relief not having to worry about the paperwork jungle that the insurance company was putting me through. He was able to negotiate a fair settlement for me without having to go through litigation. I would recommend Mr. Honda because his focus is really on the client's well being rather than the dollar amount of the case. Thank you Mr. Honda for your compassion towards me and, your aggressive approach with the insurance company.
