Hawaii SB2992 amends vehicle laws to require drivers to stop for pedestrians crossing within a crosswalk.

Hawaii SB2992 modifies Hawaii Revised Statutes to mandate that drivers must stop for pedestrians crossing within a crosswalk. This applies when the pedestrian is on the driver's side of the road or approaching from the opposite side in a manner that poses danger. The bill specifies that a pedestrian is considered to be crossing within a crosswalk when any part of their body, wheelchair, cane, crutch, or bicycle extends beyond the curb or edges of the roadway and moves onto the roadway within an intersection or crosswalk.
