HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Over the last two years, dozens of Oahu drivers have been arrested for operating a vehicle under the influence with breathalyzer results of 0.00 — meaning no alcohol showed as present in their system, HNN Investigates recently reported.

In 2022 and 2023, nearly 300 drivers who were arrested had breath or blood test results below the legal limit of 0.08, according to HPD data on arrests that did not result in charges.

Even more concerning, there were 69 people with results of 0.00.

In this episode of “The Other Side of Paradise,” Lynn Kawano speaks to a driver arrested despite being sober and gets a new response from HPD to her exclusive investigation.
