The driver of the F-150 pickup, who was not wearing a seat belt, was ejected from the truck, police said. The 36-year-old Honolulu man suffered critical injuries.
The driver of the Ford F-350 pickup went to the Queen’s Medical Center in good condition. Police said the 35-year-old Honolulu man was wearing a seatbelt.
