WAIPAHU, HI – One man was killed and another was injured when their mopeds collided in Waipahu Saturday night, according to police in Honolulu.

Hawaii News Now reports the accident took place in the vicinity of Farrington Highway and Paiwa Street at about 9:45 p.m. Investigators determined that one of the moped riders was speeding while heading west on Farrington Highway and crashed into the other moped that was turning at Paiwa Street, causing both riders to be ejected.

The first rider, a 28-year-old man, was pronounced dead after being transported to an area hospital. The second rider, a 34-year-old man, was hospitalized in serious condition.

The incident remains under investigation by Honolulu police, who said speed was apparently a contributing factor in the crash.

Accidents involving mopeds and larger vehicles, such as cars, buses, or trucks, often cause severe and potentially fatal injuries. If you were hurt in a moped accident caused by someone else’s negligence, the road to recovery could be lengthy and very costly.

Mr. Honda's good reputation precedes him. From the moment I contacted his practice I knew I was in good hands. George and Jolie were friendly, easy to talk to, and genuine. They made me feel comfortable, heard, and supported. The Recovery Law Center team helped me every step of the way. They listened to me, answered my questions, and dealt with the disparaging treatment so I didn't have to. Mr. Honda kept me informed about my options, shared his recommendations then let me decide how to proceed. Knowing they had my back and were fighting for me, gave me the chance to focus on my personal recovery. I don't know what I would have done without their help and support. Thank you Glenn Honda and The Recovery Law Center team!!!! I highly recommend them and would definitely seek out their help again if ever I needed it.
