L 2006, c 129, §1; am L 2008, c 231, §16 Where prosecution did not provide a sufficient foundation for the admission of officer's testimony regarding the speed reading given by the officer's laser gun, and no other evidence was admitted at trial indicating the speed that defendant was driving defendant's motor vehicle, disregarding the officer's testimony resulted in a record that was devoid of any evidence of the speed that defendant was driving defendant's motor vehicle; as this material element was not supported by substantial and admissible evidence, defendant's conviction reversed. 121 H. 204, 216 P.3d 1227. As § 291C-161(c) requires every person convicted under this section to be sentenced in accordance with this section, trial court erred in sentencing defendant to a six-month driver's license suspension under § 286-125; the plain language of this section required the sentencing court to impose the list of sanctions as specific under subsection (c), including a thirty-day license suspension for a first-time offender.121 Haw. 117 (App.),214 P.3d 1107.
