It wasn’t rechov minchas yitzchak. It was Rechov Shefa Chayim, which is at the bottom of mincahs yitzchak (make a right).
Rechov Shefa Chayim is a street that when finished will help connect much of North Jerusalem – frum neighborhoods, with Ramat Shlomo and Ramot. Many selfish people along the projected path tried to stop the construction, claiming “quality of life issues” and “safety of children” and “who knows if it will be closed on Shabbos”. I personally think thet just don’t want the noise, and the Hell with the thousands of people that stand to gain from this road.
It should be noted that the stetch where the accident occured is complete. It is also a very big, easy to drive street. Either the girl didn’t look, or the driver did something wrong. But the street is as safe as any other street. Perhaps more safe. Yet, I am convinced that this incident will be used as a proof of the danger of the road. (Not to mention the spiritual damage, C’V…..).
IMPORTANT – the girl is not a seminary girl, rather she was here on vacation. It is important for everyone to carry a contact number on them. The lack of it in this case was the cause of confusion as to which seminary she is from. In fact, she is in none,
Also, she wan’t transported by Hatzolah medics (although they were first on the scene) – she was transported by MDA.
The one who knows doesn’t talk-the one who talks doesn’t know. So i think you can change your name and point of view now, because b”h is what should be said when hearing that the road which would have brought much danger to the area spiritually and materially wasn’t built! B”H!
