Well, I have heard mixed opinions on this. A search of the HRS and
the C&C ordinances does not yield any such law. However, I think you
can make a reasonable case that bicycles cannot be ridden across the
roadway in a crosswalk (as opposed to ridden across the crosswalk in
the roadway) on the theory that a bicycle is a vehicle and although I
couldn't find anything specifically saying a vehicle cannot cross the
roadway in a crosswalk (it may be there) it is pretty clear that they
are not allowed to, and anyway, under current law all vehicles are
required to stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk, so you certainly
cannot legally ride your bicycle across the crosswalk if there are any
pedestrians present in the crosswalk. Once you dismount you are
magically transformed into a pedestrian and can use the crosswalk just
like any other pedestrian. This is a great way to legally get where
you are going when there are pesky No Turn signs.

There was a case some years ago where a woman on a bicycle was killed
crossing Beretania on a bicycle in a crosswalk (she was on the swim
team and a roommate of one of my students) and I was told at the time
that she was legally crossing the street (HPD did not test the driver
for DUI although witnesses indicated he was intoxicated. He was never
charged with anything), but I do not know the details of to what
extent she was walking versus riding the bicycle.
