My students and I got to the following educational and fun activities: use a taser on a dummy, sat in the squad cars and SUV, talked on the radios in the cars, turned on the siren for all of Waipahu to hear, did a mock target practice in the dark with flashing lights, and played out scenarios of when to shoot with a gun with rubber bullets at a suspect who may or may not be going for their gun, and toured the rest of their facilities. The police officers there were very welcoming and informative. My students really enjoyed talking to them and participating in hands-on activities with the officers. This is definitely a great place to take students on a field trip.

I really do not recommend tourists going out of their way to drive on this highway, which is known…read moreas "Highway of Death" due to it's one lane roads going up along a volcano, but it's two way traffic. You can be the best driver, but you come across a bad driver, all it takes is a bad driver and someone can end up dead. You really need to look ahead, plan ahead in case a car is coming towards you, and see where you can pull over to let oncoming traffic go. It's also recommended that you go West to East on the highway (come up from the South) as the hardest part of the highway is the West part. You also can't honk to warn you're coming down the road as to people's surprise, people do live in that area on that puny road. You have been warned.

Road to Hana is totally overrated in my opinion. We conquered the Kahekili Highway which has been…read morereferred to as one of the most dangerous roads in the entire world. The journey includes the best majestic coastal views and lush greenery I have ever seen. The kicker? The road hugs the edge of the sea cliffs and is very narrow (often just one lane), with many blind curves and no guard rails. One-lane bridges are common, requiring drivers to yield to oncoming traffic. Kahekili Highway was one of the mountain roads very few people knew about - which is probably what made me love it even more. I was excited and scared at the same time. My adrenaline was pumping from a combination of the picture-perfect views and the possibility of meeting another oncoming vehicle on the narrow cliff. Road to Hana was way too touristy. When everyone I spoke to and every blog told me to do it, I should have stayed away from the overrated ride that left me underwhelmed.

There are not enough back roads to get you where you need to go. Thankful for having the H 1 Freeway West. But our population and resulting traffic congestion begs for upgrades.

Coming from San Francisco Bay and Los Angeles traffic regular - I love this highway system -…read morebasically there are three highways 1, 2 and 3. I get so confused in large cities with highways that look like spaghetti. Sitting in traffic for hours to go nowhere is something I now accept as a California resident - and coming here is refreshing. I don't care how bad it gets - its nothing compared to the worst in the world. First thing you do from the airport is hop on highway 1. Took the rental car for a little test drive on this road to see how it did. You take this East and West to Honolulu - and if your a tourist - that's probably where your headed. Also took a short trip to the Pearl Harbor memorial using this highway. Also a super quick trip. Really its all such short distances I think not renting a car is probably smartest as hotel fees for parking nightly - and we had two unnecessary cars going nowhere. It's all such a scenic place to be. A normal trip on the highway in my hometown is horrible. Unpleasant - breathing in pollution and ugly sights... but not here. I guess who's to say my rental car unnecessary? I enjoyed it and the feel behind the wheel and the sense of freedom just knowing it was parked steps away ready to go.

Five stars. One of the main artery intersections into Kailua & Kaneohe. The intersection connects…read moreKamehameha Highway, Pali Highway, Kalanianaole Highway, and Auloa Road. Kamehameha Highway directs you to Kaneohe town and the north shore direction. Pali Highway directs you back to Honolulu town. Kalanianaole Highway directs you to Kailua and Waimanalo towns. Auloa Road directs you to the Maunawili neighborhood and eventually into Kailua and/or Waimanalo. The Castle Junction War Memorial is nearby too, remembering our military veterans who have the ultimate sacrifice for our country. When the traffic light goes out here, directing traffic in the driving rain or supreme heat can be a real challenge to Honolulu's Finest. So much traffic, comes through this intersection. As always, utilize caution when driving through this intersection and approaching it. Drive safely and don't speed. Drive with Aloha!

If you live or work in Windward Oahu, you know the location of this famous intersection which lies…read moreat the entrance of Kailua and Kaneohe. Approaching from town via the Pali Tunnels, Castle Junction is the first traffic light after you exit the 2 tunnels and survive the hairpin turn. If you stay in the right two lanes, you head straight into Kailua. Stay in the left turn lanes, you head into Kaneohe. Turning right onto Aoloa takes you to Maunawili - an awesome driving experience if you enjoy the numerous twists and turns. Watch out for skateboarders who sometimes brave this road. While you're at the traffic light, check out the numerous feral hens, roosters, and chicks and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Once our name was called, we were greeted politely and questioned about our needs. We were informed of the deals on the Disneyland tickets and were able to purchase and secure them right on the spot they told us how to use the tickets. It's not the same as the old days where you just show up with a ticket handed to the person and you're through. I recommend for any military members or dependence trying to get tickets for Disney or universal.

The H2 isn't necessarily the prettiest freeway on the island but it's still pretty nice despite all…read morethe dead grass in the summer and the sloppy pothole patchwork. Regardless of looks, the freeway still serves its purpose. This is probably the most convenient way to go up to the North Shore, since the only other way would be to drive all the way to the windward side and go up Kam Hwy. As a freeway in Hawaii, the H2 definitely has the least traffic (unless your stuck east bound near the Waianae exit during morning rush hour). It has an adequate amount of lanes to accommodate the volume of cars that use it. So it doesn't really feel claustrophobic unless there's an accident. At night it gets a bit creepy since there weren't any lights for a while (due to all the copper thefts). Not too sure if they have fixed this.. and if they did, they should probably double check that it's still there. One of my favorite times of the day is when I'm driving to work in the morning over Kipapa Gulch and the clouds are still lingering near the bridge. Such a neat feeling :)
