Hawaii News Now reports that the accident happened on Coral Sea Road at about 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, September 13.

Authorities say that that a 48-year-old woman lost control of her vehicle in a curve in the roadway. The car ran off the right side of the road and struck a tree.

Emergency responders rushed the woman to a nearby hospital, where she died a short time later. She was Oahu's 28th traffic fatality of the year.
