It's illegal to use someone else's placard, violations result in fines of $250 to $500, and placards can be confiscated by law enforcement.
Can out-of-state visitors use their disability placards in Hawaii?
Yes, Hawaii recognizes valid disability placards and license plates issued by authorities of other U.S. states and countries. Visitors can use their existing placard to access accessible parking spaces while in Hawaii. Just make sure it's clearly displayed and up-to-date. All parking fees apply.
