MAUI, HI – A man was killed in a crash while riding his motorcycle on Maui late Saturday night, according to Maui Now.

The victim, a 40-year-old Wailuku man, was riding a Harley-Davidson Sportster west on West Kaahumanu Avenue near Lunalilo Street when the accident occurred at about 11:46 p.m. According to Maui police, the motorcycle rider veered to the right, struck a curb and an embankment, and then collided head-on with the corner of the Ting’s Bridge retaining wall.

The rider, whose name was not released, died at the scene. He was not wearing a helmet at the time of the crash, investigators said.

Police are trying to determine whether speed, drugs or alcohol were contributing factors in the incident.

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.

Glenn Honda and the staff at Recovery Law helped me through one of the toughest times I experienced when my 15 year old was involved in a head on collision, and she was the passenger. I had so many question and concerns with her medical/therapy bills that seemed never ending. Recovery Law kept me informed throughout the process what to expect with the bills and got me through a tough time. My Attorney Glenn Honda fought hard for my daughter and kept her (and my) best interest always in the forefront. Recovery Law, and staff, went above and beyond to ensure the outcome was a positive one. Recovery Law and Glenn Honda made us feel like family and we trusted them wholeheartedly. As a mother, you always want the best for your children, and using Recovery Law during this troubling time was the best decision I made for my daughter and our family. I would recommend Recover Law, Glenn Honda to anyone who needs a strong advocate for either yourself, or your family member(s). Glenn Honda is truly a man who believes in justice.

Very pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs legal representation.
