KAUAI, HI – Police are investigating a fatal rear-end collision that occurred on Kauai Sunday afternoon.

According to Hawaii News Now, the incident happened on Kaumuali’i Highway near mile-marker 6 at about 2:45 p.m. An investigation indicated that the driver of an eastbound Toyota Tacoma crashed into the back of a Nissan Sentra. The Tacoma driver then lost control of the vehicle, which went off the road and rolled into a ditch.

The driver of the Tacoma, identified as 66-year-old Ronald Britton of Ōma’o, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Nissan, a 62-year-old Washington man, and his passenger were not injured.

Investigators do not believe that speed or alcohol were contributing factors in the wreck. Kaumuali’i Highway was shut down in both directions while police were on the scene investigating.

Glen and his staff are incredible!!! We were in quite a jam for 9 months... They got the best results possible. They really reach out to those who need it. They stuck by our side the whole time... We are a new family starting out and without their help we would be sunk. Thank you Glen and George.

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.

Recovery Law Center made my legal experience entirely stress-free. I had two face-to-face meetings and a handful of phone calls with them. I hope I won't need their services in the future, but I will not hesitate for a second to call them if I find myself on the bad side of another rear-end! Mahalo to Jolie, Glenn, and the rest of the staff at Recovery Law Center for making this ordeal completely painless! Aloha!
