Baltimore, MD - June 21, 2019 - The following email was sent out this morning by Kehilas Bnei Torah.

Subject: Public Safety Announcement - Speed

A member of our community was approached this morning by one of the city/county sanitational engineering department. The person complained that carpools in the area drive at hazardous speeds.

The person further stated that they are afraid to pick up the garbage in the area due to the cars traveling at unsafe speeds.


I would therefore ask people to please slow down and drive safely. Stop signs and speed limits are present for a reason. Unsafe driving creates life-threatening situations for everyone.


Is it worth the two extra minutes, when your actions not only cause an extreme danger, but an enormous Chillul Hashem.


Please pass this on- we must all be mindful of this situation.
