Terrible! Wishing the patient a speedy recovery! Any name for tehillim?
Lechora, we should not be allowed to drive in lakewood because if we drive a car we are considered a בור ברשות הרבים.
Is it really the time now for such comments?
At busy pedestrian interactions, the traffic lights should be programmed like the one at Kikar Shabbos in Yerushalem. There needs to be an all traffic stop when only pedestrians can cross in all 4 directions. Too many cars need to make turns competing with the pedestrian.
Local and state authorities must step up and realize they must do more to protect the pedestrians look at what other states have in place be it big tickets for not allowing pedestrians to cross at cross walks be it the light turns red at all 4 sides do more please!!!! ,im not saying that educating pedestrians won’t contribute towards lowering the accident rate !!elected officials please do more to protect the people. thank you.
