Each district is headed by a police captain, and each area by a commander.[2]
Police Vehicleedit
Subsidized Police car
Hawaiʻi County Police has a fleet of marked police cars as well as subsidized police cars, meaning they allow officers to use their personally owned vehicles as police cars. The subsidized vehicles must meet certain requirements to qualify, such as (but not limited to) engine size and body style.[3]
