| You’re on vacation… so… slow down – take it easy – relax – you’ll get there – there’s plenty of time |

| USE SEAT BELTS – It’s The Law: |
USE SEAT BELTS. IT’S THE LAW: This law applies to all front seat passengers, not just the driver. The police are actively enforcing this law and you will be issued a ticket if you or your passenger are not wearing them. Child seats are required for children 4 and under, and between the ages of 4 through 7 a booster seat is required whenever traveling in a motor vehicle. |
| RIGHT ON RED |
Right turn on a red light is permitted after coming to a complete stop. |
| USE TURN SIGNALS |
Outside of being a good driving practice… it’s considerate, and helps the flow of traffic while in congestion. |
| DRIVE WITHOUT STRESS |
Remember… you’re on vacation. |
| BE CONSIDERATE |
The ’Aloha Spirit’… need we say more? |
| DON’T TAILGATE |
There are a lot of visitors looking at scenery or for a turnoff that tend to slam on their brakes at the last minute, without looking behind them (at you tailgating). Don’t mess up your vacation, because it will be your fault! |
| PASSING |
The first question you have to ask yourself… do I really trust this rental car?... second… is this really going to save me more than 1 minute? |
| SLOW DRIVING |
Slow drivers – be considerate of the drivers behind you – pull off if you can to view the sites.
Not so slow drivers – be considerate – you’re all on vacation. |
| DRIVING THE MOUNTAIN |
Going down that is… Use a lower gear. If you use your brakes too much, they can overheat and slip or fail
completely. |
| ROAD TO HANA |
If you’re short on time for the day and want to squeeze this activity in… don’t! Stay as close to the right as possible… you never know when a large truck is coming around the corner, half in your lane! If you’re a scenic driver, pull off at one of the many overlooks. Some people ‘honk’ when approaching a hairpin curve. |
| LOST?... |
or just don’t know exactly where you are?
First… you’re on an island. Second… don’t read a map while driving. |
| WATCH THE ROAD |
Inevitably someone in the car is going to scream out… Oooooh, look at that!... Please remember you’re driving and it would be best to pull off to view the sites. |
| USE YOUR HEADLIGHTS |
It’s just a good idea to turn on your headlights when: Dusk to Dawn… on mountain roads… raining or fog. |
| SPEEDING |
Remember… You’re on vacation, so… slow down… take it easy… relax… you’ll get there… there’s plenty of time. |
