What a red light & stop sign ticket costs in Hawaii
| Typical fine | Roughly $100–$200 total with fees and surcharges |
|---|---|
| License points | No point system — the violation is recorded on your traffic abstract |
| Insurance impact | A signal violation on the abstract is rated like any moving violation — typically a 10–20% premium bump at renewal. |
| License risk | A single civil signal infraction won't suspend a Hawaii license, but the abstract entry compounds with any later violations a court reviews. |
Frequently asked questions
You can deny the infraction and request a District Court hearing under HRS chapter 291D — in writing or in person. An attorney in our network can prepare the answer and handle the hearing so the process doesn't eat your time.
Paying admits the infraction and it goes on your traffic abstract, where insurers will find it at renewal. The multi-year surcharge usually exceeds the fine several times over.
Both are civil traffic infractions with comparable fines, and both are contestable the same way. Neither belongs on your abstract if the evidence is thin.
Honolulu has operated a red light camera program in recent years; camera notices and officer-issued citations follow different tracks, so read yours carefully — an attorney can tell you quickly which fight you're in.
