Hawaii Accidents

A crash with a city-owned truck on H-1 near Pearl City is not a normal insurance claim, and a criminal charge against the driver does not pause the civil fight over your injuries or your mental health.

A city truck claim in Kaneohe does not work like a regular hit-and-run, and the fight usually starts with treatment, paperwork, and whether your symptoms showed up right away.

A Hilo salon worker got hit head-on in a parking garage, and the ugly fight is whether the driver's employer can dodge the claim by saying he was off duty.
