Chizuk - Inspiration Rabbi Chaim Pechter Shlita, the Menahel of Yeshiva Ohavei Torah of Riverdale, was driving through Staten Island when he attempted to change lanes on the highway. Unfortunately, he failed to notice a BMW driving in the adjacent lane and crashed into the vehicle.
Rabbi Pechter surveyed the damage he had caused and apologized to the middle-aged non-Jewish woman who had been driving the BMW. “I am so sorry about this,” said Rabbi Pechter. “I will pay for whatever damage I have caused.”
