HONOLULU, HI – A car and a scooter were involved in a fatal collision in Kalihi Tuesday afternoon, reports the Honolulu Star-Advertiser.

The vehicles collided in the vicinity of Kalihi Street and Palanehe Place. According to police, a scooter rider was going at high speed southbound on Kalihi Street shortly after 4 p.m. when he broadsided a northbound vehicle making a turn into a residential driveway.

The scooter rider, a 31-year-old man, was thrown onto the roadway and was later pronounced dead after being transported to an area hospital. Police said he was not wearing a helmet at the time the crash occurred.

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.
