This week, a new safety vehicle joins the important struggle to increase road safety, which was recently transferred to the Beit Shemesh Municipality for use by the National Road Safety Authority and the Ministry of Transportation.

The new safety van that is being launched was achieved through the hard work of the municipality's traffic committee and its head, Rabbi Shmuel Greenberg, who, as part of their declared goal of increasing road safety, contacted the national authority and connected them to this important matter that involves saving the lives of even more than 'one person in Israel.'

The chairman of the movement committee, Rabbi Shmuel Greenberg, said upon the arrival of the mobile unit in Beit Shemesh that the main activity of the mobile unit will be to supervise what is happening around the city's educational institutions. "Every day, nearly 50,000 students leave their homes in Beit Shemesh, and we must do everything possible to ensure that they arrive at their place of study safely, and even return home to life and peace, and to this end, the mobile unit will monitor the educational institutions, and will place special emphasis on this," Greenberg said.

Rabbi Greenberg thanked all members of the Traffic Committee for their cooperation, Mayor Rabbi Moshe Aboutbol for his constant backing and support, and the National Road Safety Authority for the joint projects that are being carried out for the safety of residents, the Authority's CEO, Mr. Ron Moskowitz, Mr. Avi Shemer, Regional Manager of the Authority, and Ms. Monique Levy, Director of the Municipal Safety Headquarters, and his assistant Yossi Goldhirsch, who worked hard to promote the project.
