HB1286

Hawaii HB1286 amends pedestrian safety laws to require pedestrians to walk on the left side of roads without sidewalks, except on interstate or state.

Hawaii HB1286 modifies existing pedestrian safety laws by requiring pedestrians to walk on the left side of roads without sidewalks, facing oncoming traffic. Exceptions are made for roads designated as interstate highways, auxiliary interstate highways, or state highways without sidewalks, unless the pedestrian is performing authorized first responder or highway maintenance duties. The changes aim to enhance pedestrian safety by providing clearer guidelines for where pedestrians should walk on roads without sidewalks.
