HB230

Hawaii HB230 amends traffic citation procedures to ensure timely delivery of citations to vehicle owners.

Hawaii HB230 modifies the process for issuing traffic citations to ensure that the original citation is given to the violator and a carbon copy is sent to the vehicle's registered owner within specific timeframes. For vehicles illegally using high occupancy vehicle lanes, the citation must be sent within 48 hours, and for those illegally using disabled parking spaces, within 72 hours. The bill also addresses scenarios where the citation cannot be delivered on time due to weekends or holidays.
