Question
Is it necessary to recite the Traveler's Prayer when traveling from Bnei Brak to Netanya, and is there a difference between a bus that travels only on Highway 2 and a bus that goes through all the interchanges (Kfar HaYarok and Herzliya)?
Thank you very much
Answer
Hello,
I do not have the ability to access road maps.
The general rule is that if there are 8000 amot [=4800 meters] without houses, one should recite the Traveler's Prayer with a blessing.
