Heading from Monsey, NY, to Lakewood, NJ, the car in which Rav Yeruchem Olshin, rosh yeshiva of Beth Medrash Govoha in Lakewood, was traveling spun out of control and ploughed into a guard rail on Garden State Parkway South.
The streets in New York and New Jersey were slippery, but it is not clear if the inclement weather is to blame for the accident.
Rav Olshin, boruch Hashem , emerged unscathed. The vehicle sustained serious damage and had to be towed. Rav Olshin was transported to Lakewood in another vehicle.

Boruch Hashem. The Rosh Yeshiva should continue to be marbitz Torah. We need our gedolim!!

I drove the RY once in Toronto and was running late for the chuppah, So I was driving like a Bein HaZmanim Bocher… and the RY literally jumped in his seat from some of my maneuvers… Needless to say, he passed on the ride back! (“It’s ok, I have another ride”)
I felt TERRIBLE.
Baruch Hashem. What about the driver?
I worry more about walking and driving around Lakewood!
The driver was takin to an area hospital by union county (elizabeth) hatzalah and bh only had minor injuries and was released
