Traffic Citations in Mililani Town
Citations in Mililani Town are issued by HPD District 2, which covers the central Oahu area including Mililani, Wahiawa, Schofield Barracks, and Royal Kunia. The three citation types are the Notice of Traffic Infraction (NTI) for civil violations, the Criminal Traffic Citation and Arrest (CTCA) for criminal offenses, and the Notice of Parking Infraction (NPI) for parking matters.
NTI citations are the most frequent. They cover speeding, rolling stops, and other civil violations. Under HRS Chapter 291D, you have 21 days from the citation date to pay, request a no-contest plea, or ask for a hearing. Missing this deadline can result in a default judgment. Older defaults could carry a license stopper, preventing renewal until the case is resolved. Act 59 (2020) eliminated automatic stoppers on new civil infraction defaults, but old cases may still carry them.
CTCA cases are criminal and require a court appearance. They cannot be resolved by paying a fine online or by mail. If your citation says you must appear in court, do not miss that date. Failing to appear on a CTCA can lead to a bench warrant. Check HRS Chapter 291C for the full list of criminal traffic offenses under Hawaii law.
Note: NTI fine amounts vary by violation type. You can check the fine amount on the eTraffic Hawaii portal using your citation number before deciding whether to pay or contest.

Traffic Abstracts and Driving Records
A traffic abstract is an official summary of your court-side driving history in Hawaii. It lists citations, case outcomes, and license actions as recorded by the judiciary. The cost is $20 per abstract. You can request one at the Wahiawa District Court in person or by mailing a written request. Instructions are on the traffic abstracts page. Include your full legal name, date of birth, and driver's license number with your request.
A Driver History Record from the Hawaii Department of Transportation costs $9 and reflects what HIDOT's licensing database shows about your driving history. Request it through the HIDOT Motor Vehicle Safety Office. The DHR and the court abstract are separate documents from separate agencies. Some insurers and courts require one over the other, so ask which one is needed before you apply. Certified court document copies are $1.00 for the first page and $0.50 per additional page.
