Pedestrian, 60s, dies after car strike on Vineyard

A woman in her 60s has died after being struck by a car on Pali Highway near Vineyard Boulevard Monday afternoon.

The collision occurred at about 2:25 p.m. when a 37-year-old motorist traveling north on the Pali Highway hit the woman, who was crossing in a marked crosswalk against a “Do Not Walk” signal, Honolulu police said.

The pedestrian, who has not yet been identified, was taken to the hospital in critical condition and later pronounced dead. The driver remained at the scene and was not injured.

Police said speed, drugs and alcohol were not factors in the crash. This is Oahu’s 46th traffic fatality this year, compared to 52 at this time in 2023.

The investigation is ongoing.
