Maran Posek HaDor HaGaon HaRav Yosef Sholom Elyashiv Shlita was asked by rabbonim affiliated with the Chafetz Chaim road safety organization regarding a driver who speaks on a cell phone while operating a motor vehicle, Kikar Shabbat reports. The Rav was asked if such a person is classified as a ‘rodef’.According to the report, the posek hador ruled that such a person “Is not exactly a rodef, but close to being one”.
The non-profit organization, which works to increase road safety awareness, is publicizing the rav’s words in the hope it will have an impact. The organization was launched last year following a number of tragic accidents that impacted the frum tzibur, and its personnel visit yeshivos and kollelim with their message of increased awareness and road safety for drivers and pedestrians alike.

Poskim have also written that it is assur betachlis haissur to drive a lot over the speed limit. As a someone who did that as a foolish bochur, I can tell you that one wrong move at those speeds and you are probably finished as there is no way to control the car. Make sure your kids understand this when they first start driving, especially in the mountains where there is more of a yetzer harah to zoom down empty roads.
What kind of meat are they serving at the AGUDA convention

They don't serve meat at the Agudah convention. The fressers just grab as fast as it's brought out, before it can be served!
the oilam holds cause dovid weinberger runs after ladies he has a din rodef
I want to thank all the geniuses who felt it necessary to disturb our centenarian godol hador with questions that could be answered correctly by a third-grader.
If you think this is bad, there is an immature rov who constantly gets up by the bimah Shabbos nacht to shriek about the latest silly shaylah he sent to Rav Elyashev. The devorim haoymdim berumoy shel oylam that he pesters the gadol hador with include imitation pepperoni on pizza altz maris ayin. And of course when you are a velt's yeshivishe wannabe, you have to purposely mispronounce exotic words so that the kehillah thinks you are so oysek in learning that you don't know any mili d'almah. So you mispronounce it as "papparazzi" with a yeshivishe Rrrrreish so that the oylam will correct it as pepperoni.
Sounds like Eisenmann from Passaic...
