Traffic Citations in Royal Kunia

Traffic enforcement in Royal Kunia is handled by HPD District 2, which covers the central Oahu area. Officers issue citations in one of three types: Notice of Traffic Infraction (NTI) for civil violations, Criminal Traffic Citation and Arrest (CTCA) for criminal traffic offenses, and Notice of Parking Infraction (NPI) for parking matters.

NTI citations are by far the most common. Under HRS Chapter 291D, you have 21 days from the citation date to respond. You can pay the fine, request a no-contest plea at a reduced amount, or request a hearing. Missing the deadline without responding can result in a default judgment. NTI fines can be paid online through eTraffic Hawaii, by mail to the court, or in person at the Wahiawa District Court. Online payments have a $1.50 flat fee plus 2.6% service charge.

CTCA criminal citations under HRS Chapter 291C require a mandatory court appearance. They cannot be paid online. If you received a CTCA, the court date is printed on the citation. Do not miss it. Failure to appear may result in a bench warrant.

Note: Kunia Road runs through the Royal Kunia area and is a commonly patrolled corridor. Citations issued on Kunia Road go to Wahiawa District Court.
