WAIKIKI, HI – Honolulu police and emergency crews were dispatched to the scene of a fatal moped accident in Waikiki on Wednesday night, reports the Honolulu Star-Advertiser.

The crash took place along Monsarrat Avenue in Waikiki at about 9:43 p.m. A police investigation determined that a moped rider was headed east and crashed into the back of a parked, unoccupied vehicle.

The rider, a 30-year-old man, was pinned under the vehicle and was extricated by first responders. He died after being taken to an area hospital. The victim was not wearing a helmet when the collision happened.

Alcohol may have been a contributing factor in the crash, according to investigators.

As the founding attorney of the Recovery Law Center, he is passionate about helping his clients with their physical, emotional and financial recovery. Mr. Honda will fight to get you coverage for your medical bills, lost wages, damaged property and other costs related to your accident.

I was Glenn Honda's client twice. Both times, he was my personal injury attorney. The first time, I was walking out the door of this building and the hydraulic malfunctioned, shoving me out. Well, as the door shoved me forward, it caught one of my fingers and partially amputated it. (It's fine now thank God). The insurance company wouldn't even pay my emergency bills. Glenn even hired an engineer to show that the hydraulic was defective. He made the insurance company pay! The second time I was walking and there was dirt and leaves covering a more than one-inch rise in the sidewalk. The City scoffed at me and my claim. But again, Glenn Honda to the rescue — He took the case all the way to arbitration. I recommend him. He fights hard for his clients.

Mr. Glenn Honda is a true professional and excellent attorney. He has been my attorney for 18 years. When I started my business, he assisted me in writing my contract. He also wrote letters for me when I encountered problematic situations. He completed my Living Trust and Last Will and Testament. Mr. Honda is astute and doesn’t leave any stone unturned. He is unequivocally the best attorney. I convey, via this rating tool, my highest recommendation.

I'm so glad I met Glenn. He's honest, smart, and approachable. Glenn gave great advice during the initial consultation (free of charge, by the way). Through his guidance, I negotiated a settlement with the insurance company. His staff is great, too — professional, respectful, skilled and kind. The location of his office is convenient.
