HONOLULU, HI – The Honolulu Police Department was called to the scene of a deadly motorcycle crash on Wednesday night, according to Hawaii News Now.

Police said a 21-year-old man was riding a motorcycle at high speed on the H-1 Freeway near Waipahu when the incident occurred at about 7:30 p.m. According to investigators, the motorcyclist was weaving through traffic and tried to exit the freeway at the Waipahu off-ramp.

When he tried to re-enter the freeway from the exit lane the man struck a safety barrier. He was ejected from the bike onto the roadway and was struck by a car.

The motorcyclist, whose name was not released, was pronounced dead after being taken to an area hospital. Police believe speed was a contributing factor in the incident.

Thank you to Attorney Glenn Honda and his staff (esp. George and Chris) for their excellent care and service. Attorney Honda, although soft spoken, was very aggressive with my claim. He fought to get me a settlement that he knew I deserved, especially after the injuries I sustained. My settlement was more than what I expected. I totally trusted Attorney and his staff to take care of my claim. They are truly personable, kind, accommodating and humble. I would definitely recommend (and return) Attorney Honda to my friends and family. Thanks again Attorney Honda!!!
