I was driving to kona from Hilo today, And right before I hit waimea, I got pulled over for speeding!!! WTF!?!? Ii was in a 55mph zone pacin the delivery truck in front of me. We came around a bend and was going down a hill that apparently turned into a 45mph zone. Apparently I was clocked going 59 in a 45. I told the cop that I just moved there and that this was the firsttime ever driving on big island. I still got the ticket, but i didn't want to argue cause the cop wasn't being a prick

I lived on the big island a few years ago.
I shipped my car from the states to there.
Apparently the previous owners lived in hawaii and shipped it from HI to the mainland.
I didnt know but my car still had a registration sticker on from like 3 years prior.
I got pulled over for expired tags the first week i was there.
I got out of the ticket, but it was a little silly.

One bit of adivse. If your car every breaks down DO NOT leave it on the side of the rode.
You will have no windows when you return.

If my car ever breaksdown, I'll lockin all the doors and calling my friend from pahoa to pick me up!! Hahahaha. He's got a flatbed tow truck so he can pick up my car no prob. Then trek it to pahoa to his shop to fix it.

Yeah, no way in hell am I leaving it on the side of the road haha
