Hit And Run
HIT AND RUN: Reposting from Anonymous PR# 22-181929 "On 10 May 2022, my car was rear ended by a reckless driver who also rear ended a second car (video 1). My car was totaled and I was injured. The driver and his passengers fled the scene after their car was also totaled (video 2). After the police did their outstanding job to track the driver, gather statements from witnesses, and complete their investigation, the prosecutor only charged the driver with reckless driving which was pleaded down to a dismissal after restitution was paid and some driver's education was completed, but the compliance and non-compliance documents were sealed. He wasn't even charged with fleeing the scene. Below is the list of charges and citations this driver accumulated over a 4 year period, both before and after this incident, and how the State handled it. Failing to prosecute dangerous drivers to the full extent of the law is what's making our roads dangerous. Dangerous drivers such as these are on our roads. They're the ones who flee the scene after hit and runs, some of which are deadly. Despite what lawmakers say, no amount of speed bumps, lower speed limits, and speed/red light cameras are going to make our roads safer if dangerous drivers are free to continue their reckless behavior. If the State handles dangerous criminal drivers like this, how do you think they prosecute people who commit other crimes that victimize us. Just think of millions in tax dollars individuals such as these cost our State every year, meanwhile our representatives find new and creative ways to increase our costs just to live our lives. Additionally, our insurance rates keep going up as these reckless drivers increase the risk of a serious accident. Our police officers risk their lives arresting the same people only to have our State put these dangerous criminals back on the street. I was lucky to not be seriously injured, but why does it take someone losing their life before the State takes action to hold criminals accountable (not to mention the ineffective speed bumps and red light cameras). The politicians we elected and supported have failed to protect us. They expect our support despite their failures to protect the people of our ‘āina, while they protect their political donor's interests. If you continue to support them, they will continue to allow the hardworking people of this State to be victims of their policies. Your loyalty should not be taken for granted. It's past time for a change in State and City leadership! Otherwise, it's just a matter of time before you become a victim too. 08 May 2020: Racing (Dismissed w/prejudice); Reckless driving (Dismissed w/prejudice); Speeding 30+ (108mph in 55mph zone) - Fine $1,137 (non-compliance documents were sealed by court) (1DTC-20-002745) 19 Jun 2020: Improper lane change - Notice Issued / No fine (1DTI-20-071448) 12 Jul 2020: Speeding (59mph in 35mph zone) - Notice Issued / No fine (1DTI-20-057025) 05 Oct 2020: Speeding (56mph in 35mph zone) - Fine $172- Not paid (1DTI-20-138226) 20 Dec 2020: Speeding (94mph in 45mph zone) - Bench warrant issued / Pled no contest / Fine $500 / 36 hrs community service / 30 day suspended license (1DTC-20-051355) 30 Dec 2020: Speeding (72mph in 55mph zone) - Fine $152 - Not paid (1DTI-20-513903) 28 Feb 2021: Speeding (62mph in 35mph zone) - Fine $202 - Not paid (1DTI-21-010947) 01 Mar 2021: Speeding (55mph in 35mph zone); No Safety check; No registration - Fine $307 - Not paid (1DTI-21-064845) 01 Mar 2021: No insurance - Not prosecuted (1DTC-21-018253) 23 Jun 2021: Failed to stop at red light; No Safety check; No registration; No license - Fine $359 - Not paid (1DTI-21-105281) 22 Jun 2021: No insurance - Bench warrant issued; State motion to dismiss charges (1DTC-21-008806) 25 Jun 2021: Speeding (93mph in 55mph zone) - Reduced to 24mph over speed limit - Fine $17 - Not paid (1DTC-21-502274) 11 Aug 2021: Speeding (75mph in 55mph zone); No safety check; No Registration - Fine $307 - Not paid (1DTI-21-078374) 20 Aug searchssh.com - reportssh.com - sshintel.com #hawaii #stolenstuffhawaii #hitandrun #recklessdriving #dangerousdrivers IMPORTANT NOTICE: Allegations of criminal conduct in this post are unverified.
