When hauling cargo or taking rubbish to the transfer station, ensure it is properly secured and covered.
According to the Hawai‘i Island police, most roadside debris is not intentionally discarded, but rather falls or is blown out of vehicles.
Loose items or unsecured items can easily blow out of open-bed trucks, trailers or roof racks, becoming road hazards and contributing to litter and traffic collisions.
Motorists are reminded that all cargo transported on public roadways must be properly secured and covered.
