laws not enforced? - Guest - 12-17-2014
Correct me if I am wrong. Did they not through years pass these following laws? I ask because they are not enforced. 1. Wheel height on trucks
2. tinting
3. graphics on windows. Am I missing something?

Walk through any parking lot in Pahoa and note how many vehicles you can find with expired registration (weight tax) and expired safety sticker. Then guess how many of those alone probably do not have insurance and/or a drivers license?

Don't forget the building code, zoning, and cultivation of marijuana. There's probably a few others.

Woah Howlie. I trust you have never set foot in a bonafide 3rd world country or else you would know better. Hawaii is what it is. Haiti it is not.

Pahoa, Puna and Ocean View, Kau are the last bastions of raw, unbridled human freedom in the USA. Yes, it is messy. Enjoy it while it lasts because someday the big money and the bureaucrats and their enforcers will arrive and let us choose to conform to their countless rules, or get crushed and kicked to the curb. For now, the police just prevent people from hurting one another and ignore most of the rest. I like it that way. Maybe others do too.

Judging by the tone of all his posts I think HowliePride is having a really bad day or is just predispositioned to be angry at the world. I always get a kick out of folks who bitch about the police, our legal system, etc... Clearly they have not lived in a "third world" country.

Yep. There are a lot of laws that are rarely enforced.

I don;\'t think there is a wheel HEIGHT law, but there is a law that the wheel WIDTH cannot exceed the fender, which is a cheap & easy thing to correct with fender extenders, something you would see more of if...
I am not sure if it is the lack of tickets written or the lack of tickets holding up in court...cannot tell you how many students I know of that boast of the tickets they have gotten out of by writing a letter (coming from a mainland area that was infamous for tickets...and the only way out of one without paying (everything had a charge) was to go to court with absolute proof that the ticket was erroneous (and even that was hard to get out of w/o paying something!)... Gotta admit, if the court does not back the ticket...kinda makes it a waste of the officers time, energy & safety to make a stop to write a ticket that just gets circular filed...
BTW...HP...13 posts in just a couple of hours???? might want to reign in a little to let others respond!
