HCC §18-79
School bus drivers must report dangerous drivers
Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗This section requires school bus drivers to report to the police any vehicle whose driver breaks a traffic rule and endangers the students on the bus. The report must include the license plate number. It is a narrow rule about reporting, not about penalties.
